Question 14

Is the process by which humans choose individual organisms with certain phenotypic trait values for breeding

Answer 14

Artificial selection

Question 15

The concept that species with ideal traits will be able to survive the current status of the environment and then reproduce

Answer 15

Natural Selection

Question 16

Natural selection was proposed by two naturalists :
