(N/A) Artificial selection is a process in the breeding of organisms where humans selectively breed individuals that possess specific desirable traits.
Natural selection is the process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.
Artificial selection does affect natural selection. While natural selection is driven by environmental pressures such as predators,climate,and resource availability,artificial selection is driven by human intervention.
By selecting specific traits,humans alter the gene pool of a population,which can reduce genetic diversity and make the organisms less adapted to natural environmental changes,thereby influencing the trajectory of natural selection.
