Detailed explanation-1: -Artificial selection is the identification by humans of desirable traits in plants and animals, and the steps taken to enhance and perpetuate those traits in future generations.
Detailed explanation-2: -Artificial selection is an evolutionary process in which humans consciously select for or against particular features in organisms – for example, by choosing which individuals to save seeds from or breed from one generation to the next. People have been artificially selecting plants and animals for thousands of years.
Detailed explanation-3: -Selective breeding versus natural selection Selective breeding is also known as artificial selection. Artificial selection is driven by human intervention.
Detailed explanation-4: -Artificial selection has been practiced for thousands of years by humans to make improvements in plant species. Mass selection is one of the earliest methods of artificial selection that enabled domestication of crop plants.
Detailed explanation-5: -Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits (characteristics) by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together.
