SelectiveBreeding
Charles
Darwin,
a
British
naturalist
who
lived
in
the
19th
century,
is
best
known
for
his
book
On
the
Origin
of
Species.
In
it,
Darwin
established
the
idea
of
evolution
that
is
widely
accepted
today.
This
idea
proposes
that
all
species
alive
have
resulted
from
an
adaptation
to
their
surroundings.
Natural
selection,
the
process
by
which
traits
are
handed
down
over
time,
is
probably
the
most
famous
priple
from
the
book.
The
process
of
artificial
selection,
however,
is
perhaps
not
as
well
known.
And
yet
it
remains
one
of
the
most
important
concepts
in
our
understanding
of
nt
and
animal
behavior.
Today
artificial
selection
is
more
often
called
“selective
breeding.”
Selective
breeding
involves
breeding
animals
or
nts
for
a
specific,
typically
desirable
trait.
By
ng
so,
the
desired
genes
from
the
nt
or
animal
will
be
passed
on
to
its
offspring.
Dog
breeding
is
one
of
the
most
popular
examples
of
artificial
selection.
You
need
only
to
tune
into
a
dog
show
on
TV
to
see
the
power
of
selective
breeding
at
work.
Crossbreeds,
for
example,
are
dogs
born
from
parents
of
two
different
breeds.
Mixed
breeds
were
born
from
parents
of
more
than
two
breeds,
and
pure
breeds
born
from
a
single,
recognizable
breed.
All
three
varieties
are
featured
in
most
dog
shows.
Dogs
are
a
particularly
interesting
example
of
selective
breeding.
Afll,
we
call
dogs
“man’s
best
friend”
for
a
reason.
Dogs
originally
evolved
from
wolves.
But
it
was
a
trait
known
as
“tamability,”
or
a
dog’s
ability
to
be
tamed,
that
resulted
in
humans
kee
dogs
as
pets.
Tamability,
which
cso
be
defined
as
a
dog’s
willingness
to
fetch
a
stick
or
lay
down
on
command,
was
not
always
the
most
desirable
trait
for
humans.
