The effects of stabilizing directional and disruptive selection on variations in a trait over time?
Let us use tallness in men and women as our example. In stabilizing selection a normal distribution of heights would be expected as the selective environment would not select against having all variants present in the population. In directional selection you would see men and women getting increasingly taller ( or, perhaps shorter ) as natural selection selected the variants that were more reproductively successful in the immediate environment. ( say women's mate choice went into overdrive for tall men ) Disruptive selection is the distribution of traits that are at either tail of the distribution. Both short and tall people are represented, but no intermediates. These two dichotomous traits are seen in nature when one species feeds on two different food sources in the same area. Rather like small and large beaked birds. How humans could go through disruptive selection I leave to your analysis.
What would the graph of carbon dioxide storage look like?
It would be decreasing
What is directional mutation?
one which changes the characteristics of an organism so it moves in a direction. Like if stin colour mutated so it was darker the mutation was directional to make skin colour darker not lighter.
What is natural selection like?
Natural selection is the nonrandom survival and reproductive success of randomly varying organisms selected against the immediate environment. Like that. Remember this little explanation and you have natural selection down pat
Graphical representation of motion?
Position-Time GraphYou can graph motion on a position vs time graph. On a position vs time graph, position is on the y-axis and time is on the x-axis. If the velocity is constant, the graph will be a straight line and the slope is average velocity. If the motion is accelerating, the graph will be a curved line.Velocity-Time GraphYou can also graph motion on a Velocity-Time graph. On a velocity vs time graph, velocity is on the y-axis, time is on the x-axis. If the graph is a straight line, velocity is constant and the slope is average acceleration. Also, on a velocity vs time graph, the area under the line is displacement.Refer to the related link for illustrations of the different graphs of motion and their meanings.
In a population of horses an extreme phenotype is favored and the distribution of genes in that population shifts toward that phenotype What is the process called?
directional selection
What does a Graph look like showing phenotype distributions for stabilizing selection?
A normal curve. A Bell curve.
Are Goodyear tires directional tires?
Some are directional like the eagle F1, however most are not directional.
What does a graph with a quadratic relationship look like?
Like a parabola. Not "like": it would be.
What is the difference between a graph and a grid?
A graph is like a bar chart and a grid is like a table they are different ways of presenting information like you where recording a what a lesson was called you would put it in a grid because its a word and you cant record words in a graph because you would usually use numbers for a graph.

What type of graph would you use to show your favorite sports?
i would put different colors on the graph or i will put the sports on one side and the number of students who like that sport on the graph
Why would you use a broken line graph?
You would use a broken bar graph, when grouping and gathering information. You would use straight, slanted, or vertical lines and showing points with dots. A broken bar graph is just like a line graph.
What would the graph of carbon dioxide storage look like?
It would be decreasing
Describe what the graph would look like of travel by car from school to home?
The answer depends on whether it is a distance-time graph, speed-time graph or something else.
What natural selection called at extreme phenotype?
This type of natural selection is called directional selection and does not display a normal curve of expressed traits, but a heavy set of data to the left of the curve that indicates the direction of selection of the extreme phenotype.Disruptive selection is where two extreme phenotypes are maintained in a population. This curve looks like a two humped camel in it's expression of these extreme traits.
What does the phase change graph for water look like?
the graph would look like a normal heating curve however at 0 degrees celsius and 100 degrees celcius, there would be a flat line.
