Difference between Extinction and Purebred

Extinction vs. Purebred

In biology, extinction is the termination of an organism or of a group of organisms (taxon), normally a species. Purebreds, also called purebreeds, are cultivated varieties or cultivars of an animal species, achieved through the process of selective breeding.

Animal

Animals are multicellular eukaryotic organisms that form the biological kingdom Animalia.

Hybrid (biology)

In biology, a hybrid, or crossbreed, is the result of combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties, species or genera through sexual reproduction.

Natural selection

Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype.

Selective breeding

Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits (characteristics) by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together.

Species

In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank, as well as a unit of biodiversity, but it has proven difficult to find a satisfactory definition.
