- In both processes the favourable characteristics are passes on to the next generation.
- Both processes eventually form a new species.

Inbreeding!
Does selective breeding benefit farmers?
Selective breeding can provide a preferred quality of food for the farmer. This means that the food produced will be preferred by customers, resulting in a larger sale and profit. Selective breeding can also increase the percentage yield of the food produced.However, selective breeding often means breeding the animals with relatives to achieve the 'ideal' quality. This results in a greater chance of genetic diseases being passed on. It also means that very little new genetic material is introduced into the gene pool, which means that most animals will have similar genes. When this happens, a new strain of disease could easily wipe out the entire farm as there is little variation between species.This also applies to plants.Another Opinion:Actually there's a few holes in the above answer, especially the second paragraph. Selective breeding is not just about line-breeding or inbreeding. Selective breeding is about selecting and breeding those animals that are best suited to meet the standards set by a producer. The animals that are not ideal for the goals and objectives that the producer has in mind, which are called inferior livestock, are simply culled from the herd or flock.Inbreeding or linebreeding is used as a means of selective breeding, but only has a means to purify a particular breed, to allow genetic abnormalities to raise their ugly heads in order to see which animals are carriers of these genetic diseases and whether they should be culled or not. Sure inbreeding could cause animals to have a poorer immune system, but that's only if a producer gets really careless with the inbreeding program and has no herd health or biosecurity program to prevent this from happening.So yes, selective breeding does benefit producers but only if it's used with care and a bit of common sense.
Where is selective breeding used?
Selective breeding is done to increase the likely hood of certain traits desirable by the breeder. If a dog breeder liked the shape of a dog's ears, she would mate that dog with another dog with similar shaped ears. Incestuous mating occurs quite frequently in animal breeding due to the increased genetic similarity. All dogs belong to the same species, and therefor can produce viable offspring. The reason a Chihuahua and a German Shepard are so different is because of the ancient practice of selective animal breeding.
What was Wallace contribution to the theory of natural selection?
Wallace's contribution was almost similar to what Charles Darwin's theory of evolution is. Is that helpful?
How are selective breeding and natural selection similar how are they different?
In selective breeding the owners of the pets will choose mates that have selected characteristics that are wanted in the offspring. They may also be repeated with future offspring. In natural breeding it is natural selection that choose and in cats their may even be more than one father and different offspring. In summary the main differences are: Selective humans choose partners with named specific characteristics where as natural if often more first come first served. Also selective breeding is often carried on through the generations whereas natural does not. Similarities are after partners are choose the rest of the process is the same.

Inbreeding
How has selective breeding been used on humans beings?
it is useful to humans because if they are looking into raising a foal, to grow up to be a great race horse they would want the parents to be healthy and quite fit. Also if they wanted to raise it to be a jumping horse, they would have to mate a healthy and muscular mare with a healthy and muscular stud. Hope that helps with your question? x
What is the definition of inbreeding?
Inbreeding is a selective breeding method in which 2 individuals with identical or similar sets of alleles are crossed.
The crossing of two indviduals that have similar characteristics is referred to as?
selective breeding not inbreeding
Selecting and crossing individuals with similar charateristics so that those characteristics will be present in the offspring is called?
Selective breeding.
Which form of selective breeding crosses parent with the same or similar sets of alleles?
Inbreeding
What are the major differences between selective breeding hybridization and inbreeding?
Selective breeding is a method of breeding that allows only those individual organisms with desired characteristics to produce the next generation. Humans use selective breeding, which takes advantage of naturally occurring genetic variation, to pass desired traits on to the next generation of organisms.Hybridization is the crossing of dissimilar individuals to bring together the best of both organisms.Inbreeding is the continued breeding of individuals with similar characteristics to maintain desired traits within a line of organisms.
How is modern DNA technology is similar to selective breeding performed throughout history?
DNA research is much more expensive and probably does the same thing.
