Multiple Choice
Thousands of years ago, humans domesticated wolves and over time have bred closely related wolf offspring. Dozens of dog breeds have emerged from wolves and other canines. Huskies were bred to be strong runners to pull sleds, and German shepherds were bred for their keen sense of smell. At times, undesirable traits, such as a weak hip in German shepherds, emerged. Which of the following explains the emergence of dog breeds from wild canines, such as wolves?
Through natural selection, domesticated dogs evolved from wild canines.
As a result of human breeding attempts, inbreeding created undesirable dog traits.
Humans used selective breeding to obtain desirable traits in dog breeds.
Scientists used genetic engineering to manipulate wild canine genes.
