In Artificial selection, Animals bred or plants that are cultivated at home garden do not occur exactly the way they are in the wild. They are the result of many centuri of selection process by humans.

*Artificial selection cannot occur without inherited variation because the inherited traits/variation could be adaptations that will help the specie to survive*.
