The type of natural selection demonstrate is B. stabilizing selection.
There are different types of natural selections, each affecting the population density of a specific allele in a different way. In stabilizing selection, the non-extreme trait is maximized. This is seen in the curve as there is less population observed at the extreme ends of the spectrum but a greater population lying in the average, less extreme zone.
