This answer is related to Animal

When a plant or animal is bred with a plant or animal from different stock, the process is known as hybridization. There are numerous reasons to create hybrids, including increasing genetic diversity and breeding for specific traits. Hybridization is frequently practiced in agriculture, to make stronger, healthier plants with desirable characteristics. Animal breeders also use hybridization to create new breeds or to try to breed out unwanted traits, such as hip dysplasia in some purebred dogs.
