Humans have used selective breeding to accelerate the evolution of dogs by choosing specific traits to breed for, such as size, coat color, and behavior, over many generations. This has led to the creation of various Dog Breeds with distinct characteristics.
What else can I help you with?
How do humans explain the process they have used to speed up evolution in dogs?
Humans have sped up evolution in dogs through selective breeding, which involves choosing specific traits to pass on to future generations. This process has led to the development of different dog breeds with desired characteristics.
How have humans affected evolution?
Humans have affected evolution through activities such as hunting, habitat destruction, pollution, and introducing non-native species. These actions have led to the extinction of certain species, changes in gene pools of surviving populations, and altered ecosystem dynamics. Additionally, human-controlled environments and selective breeding have influenced the evolution of domesticated plants and animals.
Is selective breeding used in nature to provide change over time?
Selective breeding, also known as artificial selection, is a process carried out by humans to develop desirable traits in plants and animals. In nature, natural selection is the driving force for change over time, where organisms with advantageous traits have a better chance of survival and reproduction, leading to those traits becoming more common in a population. While similar in principle, natural selection occurs without human intervention, unlike selective breeding.
What isn't an example of selective breeding?
Selective breeding is when people (scientists) breed plants/animals for their traits. Its like strong horses being bred together or like white and red flowers to make pinks flowers. They can predict what the organism will turn out to look like. An example that ISN'T selective breeding is random flowers/animals that breed not caused by humans.
What are some ways in which humans may be influecing the evolution of mankind and other organisms?
Humans influence evolution through activities like selective breeding of plants and animals for desired traits, artificial selection in agriculture and pet breeding, pollution leading to environmental changes, habitat destruction causing species extinction, and the use of antibiotics leading to antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Additionally, human interventions such as genetic engineering and gene editing technologies can directly alter the genetic makeup of organisms.
Why is selective breeding by humans of plants and animals evidence of evolution?
* Because it shows that species can change over time
What is it called when humans control the breeding of an organism?
Selective breeding
What is meant by selective breeding breeding?
It is the basis of the theory of evolution, and can be answered with "the strong/intelligent/attractive humans reproduce and the meek/dumb/unattractive ones don't." Hope I helped.
Is selective breeding necessary?
yes ofcourse for benifit of humans........

Can humans use selective breeding?
Yes, that is how they have bread Dogs, Cattle, and Pigeons.
What process do humans use to influence the traits of a species?
selective breeding; been going on for thousands of years. genetic engineering; been going on for decades.
Why is selective breeding not caused by natural selection?
Selective breeding is not caused by natural selection because it is controlled by humans, who choose which organisms to breed based on specific traits they want to pass on. In natural selection, the environment determines which traits are advantageous for survival and reproduction, leading to the evolution of species over time. Selective breeding, on the other hand, is a human-driven process aimed at producing desired characteristics in organisms for human benefit.
What is the process by which humans select plants or animals for breeding based on disired traits?
They selectively breed them. So that the animal has the best characteristics possible. Examples are pigs with more fat or sheep with thicker wool.

What is the process called where humans can breed dogs to be the color size and shape that they want?
Selective Breeding
How do humans produce animals with certain desirable characteristic?
Humans produce animals with certain desirable characteristics through selective breeding.
