a genotype ‘aa’ leads to albinism in peacocks. this condition is very rarely found in nature, compared to the normal genotype, ‘aa’, and ‘aa’; as they can be easy prey to their predators and are unable to attract mates. which types of selection forces act here?



Answer :

The types of selection that forces act based on the scenario is : 

- Sexual Selection : when the albino peacock unable to attract mates
- Stabilize Selection : When the genes favor the peacock that does not have albino, since it became easier prey for predator

hope this helps

Answer:

The best answer to this question: Which types of selection forces act here? Would be: Sexual selection forces, natural selection forces and stabilization forces.

Explanation:

Because albino peacocks are easily caught by predators, the environment and its conditions make these types of peacock, who would carry the genotype "aa" for albinism, easy prey. This means that these animals are less likely to pass on their genes to further generations and thus the genetic condition starts to die out. In this instance, natural selection is working to prevent the passing of genes. The second and most important force here is sexual selection. Because albino peacocks are reduced in number due to the fact that the genetic trait is rare, and because predators reduce the population, as well as because the phenotypical representation of the trait makes albino peacocks less desirable for their counterparts, then these animals are unable to mate, and thus, pass on their genes. Finally, due to the action of the other forces, the population of peacocks will stabilize, or adapt, to the more common trait of genotype "aa", which makes them more suitable to survive their environment and find a mate. This is known as the stabilization force. All three have been working to prevent albino traits in peacocks from passing on to further generations.
