The goal of artificial selection is to produce offspring with desirable qualities.

For example, some dog breeders use artificial selection to mate two dogs who are purebreds. In this manner, the offspring will also be purebred.

Similarly, dog breeders may use artificial selection to create "cute" hybrids. An example is the labradoodle which has a shape similar to that of a labrador retriever but the curly hair of a poodle.

Selective breeding aims to produce the "perfect" animal/crop.For example someone might selectively breed a sheep for more/softer wool.

It is generally used in farming to produce something that will create a bigger profit.

To make human race wealthy. because through artificial selection the animals or plants which are produced have no role in evolution. they don't exist for a long time if we let them live in nature. over producing cow or hen or crop they need our care. but when they are in their own they will produce a less.

They choose animals with the desired qualities and they have them breed. This creates a higher probability of the offspring having the desired trait.

How are natural and artifical selection different?

Natural selection is the process of selection imposed by pressures from the environment. It has no conscious guidance or purpose, but simply selects for a population best suited to survive in the current environment.Artificial selection is the process of selection consciously imposed by humans selecting which individuals breed. This can be considered a subset of natural selection, if one considers humans as just another part of the environment other creatures must live in.

Selective breeding or Artifical Selection is a theory by Charles Darwin that he included in his first book "Origin Of Species" its the opposite of the Natural Selection which states that the strongest specie will survive.
