Definitions:

Directional

Pertaining to or indicating the direction in which something is moving or facing; also refers to evolutionary changes in a population that favor a specific set of traits.

Stabilizing

A type of natural selection that favors the average individuals in a population, thus maintaining the population’s genetic stability over time.

Disruptive

Pertaining to a type of natural selection that favors extreme values of a trait over intermediate values, potentially leading to speciation.

Disruptive Selection

A type of natural selection that favors extreme values of a trait over intermediate values, leading to two or more contrasting phenotypes in the population.
