It is an example of directional selection.
The different kinds of natural selection can influence the distribution of phenotypes within a population. In stabilizing selection, an average phenotype is preferred.
In directional selection, a modification in the surrounding changes the spectrum of the observed phenotypes, and in diversifying selection the extreme values for a trait are preferred over the transitional values. This kind of selection usually pushes speciation.
The directional selection, in the field of population genetics, refers to a mode of natural selection in which an extreme phenotype is preferred over other phenotypes, making the allele frequency to change with time in the orientation of that phenotype.

I hope this helps :)
They are called compounds
This is because meiosis reduces the total number of chromosomes to half its original number
Answer: Availability of water
Explanation:
When a person is travelling from a forest ecosystem towards grassland ecosystem the number of trees gets reduced in number.
The trees are replaced by prairie grasses. This change is because of less water availability in the area having grass.
The amount of precipitation decides the type of vegetation found in that area.So the area having trees would be having more precipitation as compared to the area having prairie grass.
