Two selective breeding techniques are?
A
Cloning and Genetic Engineering
B
Cloning and Inbreeding
C
Inbreeding and Genetic Engineering
D
Inbreeding and Hybridization
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hybridization and inbreeding are the two methods of selective breeding or artificial breeding. Usually, humans use artificial breeding in both animal breeding and plant breeding in order to selectively develop a particular phenotypic trait.

Detailed explanation-2: -Outcrossing improves fitness traits such as reproductive ability, milk production, kid survivability and longevity. Linebreeding Linebreeding involves mating related animals like half-brother/half-sister, cousins, aunt/nephew, and other more distant relationships.

Detailed explanation-3: -As the name implies, selective breeding is a deliberate process of breeding selected animals or plants for specific genetic qualities. Inbreeding and hybridization involve the artificial selection and crossing of animal or plant species, both with different results.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hybridization is the process of combining two different genomes (from two different populations) to create a new organism, whereas inbreeding occurs when two genetically similar or identical organisms create a new organism.

Detailed explanation-5: -Hybridization and inbreeding are opposites on the spectrum of genetic diversity. Hybridization creates offspring that are very different from either parent genetically and will be very heterozygous (the alleles from each parent are likely to be very different).
