Solution

The correct option is D Artificial selection
Artificial breeding is otherwise called as selective breeding. It is a process by which humans breed other animals and plants for particular traits . Typically strains that are selectively bred are domesticated and the breeding is done by a professional breeder. Bred animals are known as breeds, while bred plants are called as varieties, cultigens or cultivars.
