The two extreme variations in a are trait are favored in disruptive selection.

No. You are describing what is called Lamarckism. Different traits are the results of the alleles found in genes. The environment does push one trait over another if the environment becomes extreme. You will see many traits in a population (such as in a human population) but one is not favored unless that trait allows those that have it to do better.
Because there has to be more than one or we would be all the same
Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two allelesβone inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.
Variations
All organisms are variations and some of these variations confer survivability and reproductive success on the organism that processes the variant traits and the progeny of this organism and all against the immediate environment. Natural selection is just the immediate environment that selects these favored organisms over their conspecifics and then the progeny of these favored organisms leave greater allele frequencies of these favored traits in the populations gene pool and these trait grow to majority ststus as the adaption now seen in the population.
matation in somatic
it can be big or small, large or tiny. itdoesn't matter the size, shape, or color. its still the same as it was.
The description of extreme beak types suggests disruptive selection, where individuals with either extreme of the trait are favored over the intermediate forms. This could occur if there are distinct ecological niches that benefit birds with specific beak shapes. Recommended: βββββ://gββα΅£ββα΅’ββα΅’β.cββ/#βffβα΅₯α΅’βββbβbbβα΅£βββ
