Mark each statement as True/ False while describing frequency dependent, frequency independent and sexual selection. In negative frequency selection, rare phenotypes are selected against In positive frequency selection, the more common phenotype is selected for The long mane of the male lion which is not present in females is an example of sexual dimorphism An example of the handicap principle can be seen in the similar body forms of male and female birds such as the mourning dove The antlers seen in male antelope, caribou, and mountain goats are example of sexual dimorphism

Frequency dependent selection refers to the phenomenon where the fitness of a phenotype is determined by its frequency in the population.
Sexual selection refers to the evolutionary process by which certain traits or behaviors are favored or selected because they increase an individual's success in attracting mates or reproducing.
