Standard portion or medium selection (4)
I believe the answer is:
norm
'standard' is the definition.
(I know that norm is a type of standard)
'portion or medium selection' is the wordplay.
'NORM' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I am unsure how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for norm that I've seen before include "Mean" , "Standard, criterion" , "Small boy" , "Average level of achievement" , "Required or acceptable standard" .)
