The idea that is most likely to be used to argue in favor of such selective breeding?

  • A) Selectively bred crops can withstand bad weather and dry conditions

Selective breeding is the system whereby two different animals or mammals are selected so that each would get a unique characteristic from each of the parents. This is used to get the most desirable traits in mammals, while eliminating the undesirable qualities.

For example, when a farmer brings two cows that have some features that he wants from them and then he cross breeds them. The offspring will end up getting both characteristics and the farmer will use them accordingly.

There are three major methods of selective breeding which includes:
