What are some draw backs of selective breeding?
You do not allow evolution to occur, for you are evolution in selective breeding.
What are some examples of selective breeding animals and plants?
The female two toed sloth is probably one of the most selevtive breeding animals. Her mate must do the can-can before she will breed with him. Of course, the most selevtive in biology it the venemous tentacular.
What are some examples of selective pressure?
Examples of selective pressure include predators preying on specific traits, competition for resources driving evolution towards efficiency, and environmental changes favoring certain adaptations over others.
What are some example of selective breeding?
to save the endangered animals
Breeders maintain the desired traits of an organism by?
Breeders maintain desired traits in an organism by selecting individuals with those traits to breed together, ensuring that offspring inherit the desired characteristics. Through selective breeding over generations, breeders can enhance the presence of these traits in the population. Additionally, breeders may use techniques like genetic testing to identify individuals with specific genes associated with the desired traits.
What are some of the genetic problems you might encounter during selective breeding?
um i really think that selective breeding is really wrong people thinks its funny but its really sad because selective breeding is abusing animals and maybe someone can make a illness and kill people etc. but i think its very wrong
How is selective breeding different from genetic engineering?
Genetic Engineering allows scientists to transfer genes from one organism to an organism of a different species; and in Selective Breeding organisms within the same species with certain desirable characteristics are mated to produce a new variety. The difference between the two is in Genetic Engineering manually transfers genes between species and Selective Breeding mates varieties within the same species to produce a new variety.
Why do people use selective breeding to change characteristics of plants?
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 are some examples of the breeder's equation and how does it impact the selection of traits in breeding programs?
The breeder's equation is a mathematical formula used in breeding programs to predict how much a trait will change over generations. Examples include selecting for higher milk production in dairy cows or faster growth in plants. By understanding this equation, breeders can make informed decisions on which traits to prioritize in their breeding programs to achieve desired outcomes.
What are some examples of true-breeding?
German Shepards
What are some organisms that was been produced by selective breeding?
I'm unaware of any animals which cannot be selectively bred. If offspring are produced through the mating of male and female of the species, you should be able to select for the most desirable traits in both parents. This assumes, of course, that the breeding stock are already in captivity.
Can a quagga be recreated?
Yes. This has almost been done, in fact, say some. A breeding-back programme has commenced, through selective breeding of the southern Plains Zebras.
