Over generations, female reindeer in a Finnish population give birth to larger offspring. Which type of selection is occurring, and how would a distribution curve for this trait change over time?(1 point)
The type of selection occurring in this case is directional selection. This is because there is a shift towards larger offspring in each generation, indicating that individuals with larger offspring have a higher fitness and are more likely to reproduce.
Over time, the distribution curve for this trait would shift towards the right. This means that the average size of offspring would increase, and there would be fewer individuals with smaller offspring. The overall distribution would become more skewed towards larger offspring as generations progress.
