The selective breeding is the practice related to genetics and eugenics. It's the same way animal breeders would do for their livestock, with the goal of selecting for desirable traits to raise the quality of the human population.

Eugenics, the scientifically flawed and immoral doctrine of "planned breeding" and "race improvement," sprang to prominence in the early 20th century. "To improve the natural, physical, mental, and temperamental traits of the human family" was eugenics' stated rationale.

Unfortunately, this sentiment was often expressed in an effort to prevent those who were deemed to be "unfit" from becoming parents. Researchers in eugenics thought that by examining large human families where a certain undesirable feature manifested, they could show a genetic pattern of inheritance for the trait and that such discoveries would justify policies targeted at eradicating the linked genes from the population.

Answer:

Mendel's law of dominance

Explanation:

A pea plant homozygous for purple flowers could have the genotype PP. A pea plant homozygous for white flowers could then have the genotype pp.

This means that all the offpsring have the genotype Pp, see the attached punnet square.

Because the P allele is dominant to the p allele, the plants have purple flowers. This is in agreement with Mendel's law of dominance. This states that for a dominant trait (following a cross of two different homozygous genotypes), hybrid offspring of the next generation will always express the dominant allele.
