Disruptive selection results in the creation of two distinct phenotypes.
Explanation;
-Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that selects against the average individual in a population. The make up of this type of population would show phenotypes of both extremes but have very few individuals in the middle.
-The variance of the trait increases and the population is divided into two distinct groups. The disruptive selection will cause organisms with intermediate traits to reproduce less, and will allow those organisms with extreme traits to reproduce more.
