b) disruptive selection.

disruptive selection
Phenotypes are the traits expressed by the genotype. So, for blood type, a person can have A and i alleles (genotype). However, in the phenotype, since i is recessive, only the A will be expressed, and the person will have an A blood type.

disruptive selection
When natural selection favors the intermediate version of a characteristic, it is referred to as stabilizing selection. It is the opposite of disruptive selection.
Stabilizing selection, which acts against both extreme phenotypes and favors intermediate variants. Hence the narrowing of the bell curve in the middle.

Stabilizing Selection-- The extremes are selected against.Example: height; mostly beings tend to the average height- not too many really short ones or really tall ones.Directional selection-- One extreme value is selected for.Example: speed; faster is always better so a population will tend to get faster over time.Disruptive selection-- The extremes are both selected for.This type of selection is not as common as the first two. Example: Prey-type animal with distinctive markings which the predators know will over time move away from the norm in both directions.

This type of natural selection is called directional selection and does not display a normal curve of expressed traits, but a heavy set of data to the left of the curve that indicates the direction of selection of the extreme phenotype.Disruptive selection is where two extreme phenotypes are maintained in a population. This curve looks like a two humped camel in it's expression of these extreme traits.
codominance
Phenotypes are the traits expressed by the genotype. So, for blood type, a person can have A and i alleles (genotype). However, in the phenotype, since i is recessive, only the A will be expressed, and the person will have an A blood type.
Incomplete dominance can create offspring that display a trait not identical to either parent but intermediate to the two. One example of incomplete dominance is a red flower and a white flower crossbreed to form a pink flower.
