Question

What is inbreeding?(1 point)

Answer 1

Inbreeding is the mating or breeding of closely related individuals within a population or species. It usually involves the reproduction between siblings, parents and offspring, or other close relatives. This can result in a higher frequency of shared genetic traits and can lead to a decrease in genetic diversity within the population. Inbreeding can also increase the likelihood of genetic disorders and may negatively impact the health and reproductive success of the population.
