Respuesta :

Stabilization Selection

In Stabilization Selection there is a decrease in the amount of variation. In the case of Stabilization Selection, selective pressures must select against two extremes of a particular trait. Two opposing selection pressures will combine to maintain a median height. Rather than resulting in extremely tall plants or extremely short plants, the majority of the plants in this population will be of medium height.
