Selective breeding is only allowing breeding between individuals with desireable traits. Natural selection refers to the increased or decreased fitness and individual has for a certain environment based on various traits. An example of this would be The sickle cell trait in Africa. Carriers of the trait have a resistance to malaria, so have a higher fitness for areas endemic for malaria, and those that do not carry the trait are selected against.

Selective breeding is when people choose the traits they want to keep in a population.
Natural selection is when survival chooses the traits that will stay in a population.

organic decision: while animals needless to say breed with one yet another to produce offspring Selective breeding: looking animals with sturdy traits and traits and breeding them. Genetic engineering: getting genes that are sturdy from specific animals and putting them in the mummy to produce an animal with specific sturdy effective components. wish this helped.xx
