Artificial selection in breeding provides evidence for evolution known as:
Correct answer: A. Domestication
- A. Domestication
- B. Deme
- C. Gene pool
- D. Desire trait
- E. Genetic death
Explanation
One of the most notable examples of artificial selection is domestication, where humans have selectively bred plants and animals to suit their needs and preferences. Domestication has resulted in the development of various breeds and varieties that differ significantly from their wild ancestors. So option A is the correct answer.

About Evolution
Evolution describes heritable change in populations over generations through variation, natural selection and adaptation. Lamarckism explains inheritance of acquired characteristics, while Darwinism explains selection of favourable inherited variations; these historical explanations must not be confused with the modern genetic account of evolutionary change.
