Answer:

b. stabilizing selection

Explanation:

Stabilizing selection is a from of natural selection that selects against the two extreme ends of a phenotypic trait while favoring the intermediate phenotypes.

Stabilizing selection is the opposite of disruptive or diversifying selection that favors the extreme forms of a trait.
