Answer:

The conditions for natural selection are:

  • overproduction of offspring
  • variation among organisms in a population
  • favorable adaptations selected by nature

Explanation:

  • Natural selection is the continuous process of reproduction and survival that is caused by the contrast and differences due to phenotype.
  • Overproduction of species creates the competition and only the one survived through the natural selection grows to the next generation.
  • Similarly variations in the phenotypic organization of species, their adaptation process etc causes the natural selection.
  • Natural selection is the gateway for the evolution.

Answer:

This is an example of "Disruptive selection".

Explanation:

<em>Disruptive selection</em> occurs when <em>selective pressure</em> <em>favor homozygous</em>. In equilibrium, <em>the two alleles might be present or one of them might be lost</em>. If an environment has two extremes, then in these environments, both alleles are presented in homozygous.  

The disruptive selection causes an <em>increase</em> in the two types of <em>extreme phenotypes over the intermediate forms</em>. Limits between one extreme and the other are frequently very sharped. Individuals belonging to one phenotype can not live in the same area as individuals belonging to the other phenotype, due to the traits differences between them, competition, or predation.

Populations show two favored extreme phenotypes and a few individuals in the middle. Individuals who survive best are the ones who have traits on the <u>extremes forms</u>.  Individuals in <u>the middle</u> are not successful at survival or reproduction.

<em>Color</em> is very important when it comes to <em>camouflage</em>. Dark green caterpillars that live in dark foliage and light green caterpillars that live in light foliage can <em>hide from predators</em> more effectively and will live the longest. Intermediate colored green caterpillars that don't camouflage or blend into either will be eaten more quickly.
