Women often have complications during labor while giving birth to very large babies, whereas very small babies tend to be underdeveloped. Which kind of selection is most likely at work regarding the birth weight of babies?a. Stabilizing selectionb. Directional selectionc. Disruptive selection

Respuesta :

Answer:

c) Stabilizing selection

Explanation:

Stabilizer selection is a type of natural selection that generates changes in populations over time.  This type of selection is responsible for preserving the average characteristics of a population, favoring the reproduction of these individuals.

In infants, it is shown that the optimal weight (the one that gives a greater chance of survival) is a measure that is in a medium-range, neither extremely high nor extremely low.
