Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Directional selection: Directional selection occurs when a single phenotype is favored, causing the allele frequency to continuously shift in one direction.
Detailed explanation-2: -The directional selection theory says that an extreme phenotype (characteristics or traits) is favored over other phenotypes and this causes the allele frequency (how often the variant of a gene shows up in a population) to shift over time in favor of the extreme phenotype.
