Why is artificial selection important to people?
Humans use artificial selection to breed animals, to have their desired features in them and to take out unwanted features from them. Artificial Selection is mostly used to make animals more obedient or sometimes used to increase the population of endangered animals.
When was Some theorems on artificial selection created?
Some theorems on artificial selection was created in 1934.
Type of selection in which human select the variation?
Artificial selection.
What is breeding of plants and animals with certain traits to produce offspring with those traits?
artificial selection
Selection in which humans allow only the best organisms to produce offspring?
Artificial Selection
Cows that give more milk than other cows are an example of?
Natural variation, natural selection, artificial selection, genetic engineering, etc.
Is dog breeding an example of natural selection?
False, dog breeding would be an example of Artificial Selection.
Is Dog breeding is an example of natural selection?
False, dog breeding would be an example of Artificial Selection.
Artificial selection example?
Think GMO crops. Not natural selection, we selected them artificially
A farmer's use of the best livestock for breeding is an example of?
artificial selection
Cattle are bred to create offspring that produce a lot of milk. What is this an example of?
artificial selection
Is artificial slelction part of darwin's theory?
As an example of the selective mechanism, but artificial selection is directed by men and usually has a definite goal in mind. Natural selection is the selection of favorable variants, something like artificial selection, against the backdrop of the immediate environment. Artificial selection selects traits beneficial to the men doing the selection, while natural selections selects traits beneficial to the organism. Still, genes are changed over time in populations with both methods.

Compare and contrast natural selection and artificial selection?
Natural selection is when contemporary species rose from ancestors that survived due to their physical characteristics in their habitats. A well-known example is the Galapagos Islands and how the animals on the islands adapted to their environments. Darwin convinced the biology world that diversity in organisms came from evolution (descent without modification). Artificial selection is when humans intentionally breed animals for certain traits. Unlike natural selection, where only the fittest survive, artificial selection is for human's likings. Many crops that are grown are part of artificial selection.
What role does the environment play on natural selection?
Nature plays no direct role in artificial selection. That is the difference between artificial selection and natural selection. Nature does play some indirect roles in artificial selection. One indirect role is in providing the organisms with which one beings the artificial selection. Another is in influencing the choices of the organism performing the artificial selection.
What is one factor that affects natural selection and artificial selection?
Variation in the organisms under selection. In both artificial selection and natural selection there must be heritable variations that have the possibility of being in the case of artificial selection what the selector wants in the organism and in thje case of natural selection survivability and reproductive advantages.
