In peppered moth populations, light and dark moths are selected for in different environments. Which type of selection is this, and what would a distribution curve for all peppered moths look like?
In peppered moth populations, where light and dark moths are selected for in different environments, this is an example of disruptive selection.
A distribution curve for all peppered moths would show two distinct peaks, one representing the light moths and the other representing the dark moths. The curve would be bimodal, with a peak for each type of moth, reflecting the differences in selection and adaptation to their respective environments.
