Stabilizing selection is the type of selection that keeps the center of the curve at its current position. This type of selection removes extreme phenotypes from the population, favoring the intermediate phenotype.

What is center of curveture?

That refers to the center of the circle that "fits best" - that follows the direction of a curve (locally) most closely. (The formal definition, of course, is a bit more complicated, and involves concepts of calculus, such as limits.)


How can one determine an object's position from a velocity graph?

To determine an object's position from a velocity graph, you can find the area under the velocity curve. The area represents the displacement or change in position of the object. The position at any given time can be calculated by adding up the areas under the curve up to that time.


When car takes turn around a curve road the passengers feel a force acting on them in direction away from center of curve is due to?

The force that passengers feel pushing them away from the center of the curve is called centrifugal force. This force is a result of the car's inertia trying to keep moving in a straight line while the car changes direction around the curve.


What force that pushes a vechicle away from the center of the road in a curve?

The centrifugal force pushes a vehicle away from the center of the road when it navigates a curve. This force is a result of the vehicle's inertia trying to maintain a straight-line path while the vehicle itself is turning. The centrifugal force increases with the sharpness of the curve and the vehicle's speed.


Find position given velocity vs time graph?

To find the position from a velocity-vs-time graph, you need to calculate the area under the velocity curve. If the velocity is constant, the position can be found by multiplying the velocity by the time. If the velocity is changing, you need to calculate the area under the curve using calculus to determine the position.

Three ways natural selection picks a phenotype?

stabilizing selection: when individuals near the center of the curve have a higher fitness than individuals at either end of the cure, keeping the center at its current location but narrows the overall graph directional selection: when individuals at one end of the curve have a higher fitness than individuals at the other end, or middle, causing the entire curve to move as the character trait changes disruptive selection: when individuals at the upper and lower ends of the curve have higher fitness than individuals near the middle, causing the single curve to be cut into two These three types of selection are brought about by natural selection, so whichever one is favored, then the genes evolve in that specific direction. natural selection acts on the genotype, but the results are seen in the phenotype


What is the type of selection where individuals nears the center of a distribution curve have higher fitness than those at the extremes?

It's usually called stabilizing selection.


What is the difference between directional and disruptive selection?

I'm not sure what "stabilizing directional" selection is, but if you get out a bell curve graph... Stabilizing selection tends to select for individuals around the average, or mean, of a population, which technically makes the curve steeper. Directional selection shifts the average in one direction (shifts the whole curve in one direction). Disruptive selection creates two new averages, which means it splits the one curve into two, smaller, separate curves.


What does a Graph look like showing phenotype distributions for stabilizing selection?

A normal curve. A Bell curve.


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 is the type of selection in which individuals at one end of the distribution curve higher fitness than individuals in the middle of at the other end?

stabilizing selection


What type of selection is shown when the bell curve narrows over time?

Stabilizing selection, which acts against both extreme phenotypes and favors intermediate variants. Hence the narrowing of the bell curve in the middle.
