Answer:
artificial selection/selective breeding
Explanation:
The illustration is an example of <u>artificial selection.</u>
<em>By definition, </em><em>artificial selection</em><em> is the deliberate perpetuation of some traits in living organisms simply because the traits are desirable. The organisms are selected because of the traits and allowed to breed either naturally or otherwise in order to ensure that these traits appear or are even consolidated in the offspring of the breeding. </em>
