artificial selection
HumanitarianA humanitarian is one who possesses traits of compassion for other humans by their acts of kindness.

Darwin Which was the theory of evolution by natural selection. this is where the fittest species survive and pass on their traits. Lamarack which is the theory acquired characteristics . similar but wrong where it states animals will adapt and chage there thraist to fit in the environment and pass on their traits
The first Americans, particularly the indigenous peoples of Mesoamerica, developed corn through a process of selective breeding. They started with a wild grass called teosinte and gradually domesticated it over thousands of years, selecting for desirable traits like larger kernels and more productive plants. This process involved saving and replanting seeds from plants with these desired traits, leading to the development of maize, or corn as we know it today.
Darwin's theory was that beneficial traits would be favored in a population by a mechanism called natural selection. Lamarck proposed that acquired traits would be passed on to the offspring. Darwin's theory is favored over Lamarck's because there is no identified mechanism for passing on acquired traits e.g., your baby will not be born with pierced ears even though yours are pierced. In Darwin's theory, the traits that are favorable for an organism offer some adaptive advantage to those members of the population that possess it. Having the advantage allows them to produce more offspring e.g., rabbits range in color from black to white--in a snowy environment, the white ones have the advantage over the darker ones so they breed, well, like rabbits.
Humans use selective breeding to pass desired traits to the next generation of plants or animals.
sexual selection
Artificial selection.
when humans breed an animal for a certain trait.
The process by which humans breed organisms to obtain certain traits is known as artificial selection.
The process by which humans breed organisms to obtain certain traits is known as artificial selection.
Natural selection and artificial selection both involve an organism's traits being determined by how much they're favored. Then, the organisms with favorable traits pass those traits on to future generations.However, natural selection is caused by survival; the organisms with traits that increase their chances for survival and reproduction pass on their traits. As for artificial selection, humans purposefully decide which traits (like the most colorful one) of an organism to pass on.The similarity of artificial selection and natural selection is that they both can cause changes in the frequency of population.
Humans directly affect artificial selection. They do this by selecting the specific traits that they prefer which they cannot don in a natural selection.
Natural Selection is different from Selective Breeding beacuse the environment controls the traits the animal or plant gets. Selective Breeding is the traits desired are the ones bred
Artificial Selection Answer Artificial Selection is the breeding of certain traits (better traits) over other traits. For example, breeding a good male horse with excellent racing qualities with a healthy female horse so that the offspring will have the desired traits such as the racing qualities. Another example is breeding good size fruits or vegetable together to keep on getting the good size. Selection done by humans looking to maximize traits in animals under domestication. These traits are not always for the benefit of the organism though. Men raise these animals and mate the ones they think will breed true for a man favored trait and cull the rest of the organisms by killing them, or by not allowing them to breed.
We do it with domestic animals all the time.
A technique in which breeders select particular traits to be passed on is called? A)Natural Selection B)Artificial Selection C)Darwin Selection D)Synthetic geneology
