Hybrid means taking two powers and mixing them. Cars will be gas and electric, plants can be mixed so one that dies in cold is mixed with one that don't so it can survive the cold, a liger is a tiger bred with a lion, ect...

Cell hybridization means to take two different germ cells from the same species. A person doing this would like to make a new plant or animal that will do better in their environment. This would be done "in vitro", meaning in glass. So, done in a Petri dish or test tube rather than using test plots. It is supposed to save time by removing steps in cross-breeding.

By fusing proplasts of two cells from two varieties or species under controlled conditions. This is also called somatic hybridization.
