Dogs Dogs have been selectively bred for different purposes, such as guard dogs, sheepdogs, tracker dogs and "cute pets" Wheat Wheat has been selectively bred for higher yields, shorter stems to reduce wind damage and greater resistance to diseases Horses Horses are selectively bred and technology can increase the rate of conception, a healthy pregnancy, and successful foaling.
What else can I help you with?
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 the two methods of selective breeding?
The two methods of selective breeding are inbreeding, where closely related individuals are bred to emphasize particular traits, and outbreeding, where unrelated individuals are bred to introduce new genetic variability.
How has corn changed through the process of selective bred?
Through selective breeding, corn has been altered to have larger kernels, increased pest resistance, and higher crop yields. Additionally, corn varieties have been developed for specific purposes such as animal feed, ethanol production, and human consumption. Overall, selective breeding has allowed for the genetic enhancement of corn to better meet the needs of agriculture and industry.
How gentic traits inheritance differ in natural selection vs selective breeding?
In natural selection, genetic traits are passed down based on survival advantages, with organisms inheriting traits that increase their chances of survival and reproduction. In selective breeding, humans intentionally choose specific traits to be passed down, regardless of their survival advantage, with the goal of producing desired characteristics in offspring for human benefit. The main difference is that natural selection is driven by environmental factors selecting for advantageous traits, while selective breeding is driven by human intervention selecting for specific traits.
What is selective breeding?
Selective breeding is the process in which two animals from the same species reproduce due to useful characteristics. Two animals with a certain type of characteristic are bred together to produce offspring. Then the offspring with the most useful characteristic breeds with another offspring to produce more offspring. This process continues for generations until the offspring consistently have the useful characteristic farmers or scientists are looking for. Cross-breeding is a type of selective breeding except with animals from two organisms from the same species but not the same breed. Selective breeding is one of the most common causes for a wide range of breeds in animals and varieties in plants. this is incorrectIt is the process which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular characteristics by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together
How is cross breeding different from selective breeding?
Cross breeding is simply taking two breeds of animals and mating them together (Such as a Charolais crossed with a Hereford). Where selective breeding is selecting the what two animals you want bred together to produce a better animal.

Has an animal been selectively bred?
Yes.
What animal was a horse bred from?
a jackass and a donkey
What do you call the mother of an animal that is bred?
Dan
What breeds of dog are not selectively bred?
All defined breeds are selectively bred. Maybe different breeders have slightly different goals, but as long as humans decide which dog mates with which, then it is selective breeding. Only time breeding isn't selective is when the dogs are free to mate as THEY wish. As with street dogs.
Whats the job outlook of a animal breeder?
depends on the animal being bred
