In a species, the weight of newborn ranges from $2$ to $5\; \mathrm{kg} .97 \%$ of the newbom with an average weight between $3$ to $3.3\; \mathrm{kg}$ survive whereas $99 \%$ of the infants born with weights from $2$ to $2.5\; \mathrm{kg}$ or $4.5$ to $5 \;kg$ die. Which type of selection process is taking place?
