What is the natural selection that favors one extreme?

Directional selection favors one extreme phenotype in a population, causing a shift in the distribution of traits towards that extreme. This occurs when the environment changes and one extreme trait becomes more advantageous for survival and reproduction.


In a population of horses an extreme phenotype is favored and the distribution of genes in that population shifts toward that phenotype This process is called selection?

the process is called an DIRECTIONAL selection.


What form of natural selection is shown on a graph as selection against an extreme?

Directional selection is shown on a graph as selection against an extreme. This occurs when individuals at one extreme of a trait distribution have lower fitness than individuals with intermediate phenotypes or those at the opposite extreme. Over time, this can lead to a shift in the average phenotype of a population.


Is weather a density independent limiting factor?

Yes, weather is considered a density-independent limiting factor because it affects populations regardless of their size or density. Events such as storms, droughts, and extreme temperatures can impact survival and reproduction rates across all population levels. Unlike density-dependent factors, which are influenced by population density (like competition and disease), weather-related events can have widespread effects irrespective of how many individuals are in a given area.


What is the indigenous population at the south pole?

There is no indigenous population at the South Pole. It is a desolate and uninhabitable region with extreme cold temperatures and harsh conditions that make it unsuitable for human habitation.
