write it in your own words:
"In humans, five days after the fertilization, the blastocyst performs zona hatching; the zona pellucida degenerates and decomposes, to be replaced by the underlying layer of trophoblastic cells. The zona pellucida is essential for oocyte growth and fertilization."
The zona pellucida supports communication between oocytes and follicle cells during oogenesis; protects oocytes, eggs, and embryos during development, and regulates interactions between ovulated eggs and free-swimming sperm during and following fertilization.

Answer:
16. Directional Selection
17. Disruptive Selection
18. Stabilizing Selection
19. Natural Selection
20. Adaptation
Explanation:
In population genetics, directional selection/positive selection is a mode of natural selection in which an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes.
Disruptive Selection would show phenotypes (individuals with groups of traits) of both extremes but have very few individuals in the middle.
Stabilizing Selection. Occurs when individuals at the extremes of the range of characteristic are selected against. This means that the "average" individuals are selected for.
