What is the difference between natural selection and selective breeding? Then, give examples of natural selection and selective
serg [7]

Natural Selection is when traits are "naturally" selected for, because "survival of the fitttest."  Example would be a species becoming bigger over time, because the smaller animals of that species were more likely to be eaten by predators.  Natural selection is when the "best" trats are passed down due to chance

Selective breeding is if an outside forece (like a dog breeder) "chooses" a triat to be passed down.  Example, instead of breeding a brown dog with a white dog, the breeder breeds two black dogs together in orer for the litter to all have black fur

Nadya [2.5K]
Name

Date: May 1st

Date completed: May 12th

Hypothesis: I believe the seeds will grow 1-2 feet based on my research

Procedure: I put my seeds in small pots and put on a self I have outside in the sun. They can absorb good sunlight this way

Growth of seeds: all varied but stayed within 3 feet

Type of seeds:
1. Cornflowers

Growth
Day 3: about 2 inches
Day 6: about 5 inches
Day 9: about 12 inches
Day 12: about 22 inches
Day 15: about 34 inches

Interpretations: cornflower- the meaning is wealth, prosperity, fortune and friendship.

I don’t know what was asked in the lab...

Conclusion: my hypothesis was kind of correct. My cornflowers grew to be over 2 feet, but not by much. Some even stayed under, but not by much I say again. This was a fun and educational experience and I learned a lot about this wonderful plant. I hade no idea that it was even a real thing before this project! I learned that different flowers grow at different paces, even if they get the same amount of sunlight and water.
