The process of choosing organisma with the most desirable traits for mating is often used by breeders in hopes of building up desired traits in a population?

Answer 1

Selective breeding takes place when animals are selected to mate so that their desirable traits can be combined in their offspring.

Answer 2

This process is known as selective breeding or artificial selection. By selecting organisms with desirable traits and breeding them together, breeders can pass on those favorable traits to future generations, gradually improving the overall quality of the population. This method is commonly used in agriculture, livestock production, and pet breeding to produce organisms with specific traits such as disease resistance, growth rate, or appearance.
