Natural selection is more of an evolutionary factor than a stabilizing factor, but one could argue that the end result of evolution is an organism that is perfectly adapted to its ecological niche, in which case stability will result.
The three patterns of natural selection are directional selection, stabilizing selection, and disruptive selection. Directional selection favors individuals at one extreme of a trait distribution, stabilizing selection favors the intermediate phenotype, and disruptive selection favors individuals at both extremes of a trait distribution.
Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection that favors the intermediate phenotypes in a population, leading to a decrease in genetic diversity. Disruptive selection, on the other hand, favors extreme phenotypes over intermediate ones, resulting in increased genetic variation within a population.
The most common type of natural selection is stabilizing selection. This type of selection favors average traits in a population, reducing genetic diversity and maintaining the status quo of a population's characteristics.
Stabilizing selection is the type of natural selection that acts against extreme forms of a polygenic trait to reduce genetic variation and maintains the average value of the trait within a population. It favors the intermediate phenotype, leading to a narrowing of the range of variation for that trait over time.
To determine which form of natural selection is represented on the chart, it would be essential to examine the characteristics of the population depicted. Stabilizing selection favors average traits, disruptive selection favors extreme traits, and directional selection favors one extreme over the other. Without seeing the chart, it’s impossible to specify which type is shown, but you can identify the type by looking for these patterns in trait distribution.
When natural selection favors the intermediate version of a characteristic, it is referred to as stabilizing selection. It is the opposite of disruptive selection.

Stabilizing selection.
It is stabilizing selection
stabilizing selection
This type of natural selection is called stabilizing selection because the mean traits of the population are being selected for against the immediate environment.

That would be the Stabilizing Selection where there will me not a lot of genetic variation. The curve of the population allele frequency would be quite thin with the extreme being in the middle.
