The breeding of plants or animals to produce desired traits. Selective breeding. Selective breeding is when humans choose certain plants or animals with specific traits to reproduce, so the offspring have those desired traits too.
Imagine you're trying to organize your closet, but it's cluttered with clothes you rarely wear. Just as you'd sort through and keep only the clothes that fit well and suit your style, selective breeding involves choosing plants or animals with traits that are most desirable. In both cases, you're intentionally selecting the best options—whether it's clothes that match your needs or organisms with preferred traits—to create a more ideal collection, be it a wardrobe or a breed.
