If a species currently alive today were undergoing intense diversifying selection, which of the following might you expect to see in a number of generations? Very little change, but a smaller overall population One particular trait, the trait under selection, would become more pronounced throughout the whole species The species would likely be extinct Separate populations of the species with distinctive profiles, perhaps even the start of speciation, or multiple species descended from the original one
