The type of selection in this scenario is stabilizing selection. The distribution curve for the mouse population would show a tall, narrow peak in the center of the graph, with fewer individuals on either end of the curve. This indicates that medium brown mice are more likely to survive and reproduce, leading to a higher frequency of medium brown individuals in the population.
