Natural selection
Natural selection was a theory made by Darwin that states biological traits become less or more common due to the environment. There are three types of natural selection.
1. Stabilizing Selection-Two extremes are favored to balance the population.
2.Directional Selection-One trait is favored.
3. Disruptive Selection-The extremes are favored. [1]
