Summary Introduction

To explain: The relationship between artificial and natural selection.

Introduction: Selection is a very important criterion for the evolution of species. Selection gives chance to a species to pass on the required characters to next generations. Selection of traits in different species can be performed to get some new traits in future generations. Selection in nature is called as “natural selection” where selection of traits of animals and plants by humans is called “artificial selection” and it is mainly used in agriculture for creating offspring with desired characters.
