Detailed explanation-1: -How does selective breeding work? Farmers select parents with desirable characteristics and breed them together. From their offspring, they again choose those with the best combination of traits and breed them together. The process is repeated over many generations .
Detailed explanation-2: -Artificial selection, also called “selective breeding”, is where humans select for desirable traits in agricultural products or animals, rather than leaving the species to evolve and change gradually without human interference, like in natural selection.
Detailed explanation-3: -Main steps involved Decide which characteristics are important enough to select. Choose parents that show these characteristics from a mixed population. They are bred together. Choose the best offspring with the desired characteristics to produce the next generation.
