the difference is the point that hybridization is the combination of two different species or verities, and inbreeding is breeding between closely related people or species.

What are the two types of selective breeding?

There are more than two, but two of them can be Monohybrid Cross (a cross involving one trait/gene from a single locus, and Dihybrid Cross (a cross involving 2 traits/genes occupying two different loci


Which form of selective breeding crosses parents with the or similar set of alleles?

Inbreeding


Which form of selective breeding crosses parents with the same or similar sets of allele?

Inbreeding!


What is a cross between dissimilar individuals to bring together their best characteristics?

A hybridization. This breeding approach involves crossing two genetically diverse individuals to create offspring with a combination of desirable traits from each parent.


Does selective breeding benefit farmers?

Selective breeding can provide a preferred quality of food for the farmer. This means that the food produced will be preferred by customers, resulting in a larger sale and profit. Selective breeding can also increase the percentage yield of the food produced.However, selective breeding often means breeding the animals with relatives to achieve the 'ideal' quality. This results in a greater chance of genetic diseases being passed on. It also means that very little new genetic material is introduced into the gene pool, which means that most animals will have similar genes. When this happens, a new strain of disease could easily wipe out the entire farm as there is little variation between species.This also applies to plants.Another Opinion:Actually there's a few holes in the above answer, especially the second paragraph. Selective breeding is not just about line-breeding or inbreeding. Selective breeding is about selecting and breeding those animals that are best suited to meet the standards set by a producer. The animals that are not ideal for the goals and objectives that the producer has in mind, which are called inferior livestock, are simply culled from the herd or flock.Inbreeding or linebreeding is used as a means of selective breeding, but only has a means to purify a particular breed, to allow genetic abnormalities to raise their ugly heads in order to see which animals are carriers of these genetic diseases and whether they should be culled or not. Sure inbreeding could cause animals to have a poorer immune system, but that's only if a producer gets really careless with the inbreeding program and has no herd health or biosecurity program to prevent this from happening.So yes, selective breeding does benefit producers but only if it's used with care and a bit of common sense.

What are two types of selective breeding and how are they compared?

Two types of selective breeding are inbreeding and outbreeding. Inbreeding involves mating closely related individuals, increasing the chance of inheriting both desirable and undesirable traits. Outbreeding, on the other hand, involves mating unrelated individuals, which can increase genetic diversity and reduce the prevalence of genetic disorders.

Is hybridization a type of selective breeding?

Yes.


What are two types of selective breeding and how do they compare?

Inbreeding and outbreeding are two types of selective breeding. Inbreeding involves breeding closely related individuals to accentuate desired traits but can lead to an increased risk of genetic diseases. Outbreeding involves crossing individuals from unrelated lines to introduce new genetic variation but can result in a loss of desirable traits if not carefully managed.
