Question

A group of animals which are related by descent and share many similarities is referred to as
A. breed
B. race
C. variety
D. species

Answer 1

Hint:These groups of organisms are a selected group of livestock having homogeneous appearance (phenotype), homogeneous behavior, and/or other characteristics that distinguish it from other organisms of an equivalent species. does so by selecting individual animals from within a gene pool that they see as having the required qualities needed to reinforce the breed model they're aiming for.

Complete answer: A group of animals that are related by descent and similar in most characters like general appearance, size, features, etc., are said to be a breed. The organisms which are related by descent are referred to as breed. They need most of the characters which are similar. the overall features, characteristics, size, appearance, etc. of those animals resemble one another. These animals mate or breed with one another within the same breed so as to take care of the pure line breed. Breeds are formed through genetic isolation and either natural adaptation to the environment or selective breeding or a mixture of the two. Despite the centrality of the thought of "breeds" to farming and agriculture, no single, scientifically accepted definition of the term exists. The race may be a geographically isolated breeding population that shares a standard feature in higher frequencies. Variety may be a taxonomic rank below that of species or subspecies but above that of form. Species may be a group of closely related organisms that are very almost like one another and typically capable of interbreeding.

So, the proper answer is A. breed.

Note: It is important to note that a breed is therefore not an objective or biologically verifiable classification but is instead a term of art amongst groups of breeders who share a consensus around what qualities make some members of a given species members of a nameable subset.
