Hello!

The type of selection which is illustrated by these two graphs is a Stabilizing Selection

Among the different types of Natural Selection. Stabilizing Selection is the one that happened to the parrot population in the rainforest in Costa Rica. This is characterized by the selection against the extremes of an attribute and reinforcement of the mean, that's why this type of selection is also called Selection towards the mean.

In this case, there was selection against the parrots with colored feathers other than green that didn't help them to camouflage in the rainforest.

Have a nice day!

Answer:

The cyclist’s displacement is +5 m.

Explanation:

We have, A cyclist starts at a position of origin. He takes 3 s to move east to a position of +8 m. He then cycles west to a position of +5 m which takes an additional 2 s.

It is required to find the cyclist’s displacement. Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it or it is given by the difference of final to the initial position.

Finally, he cycles west to a position of +5 m. Distance between final and initial position is +5 m.

Hence, the cyclist’s displacement is +5 m.
