Breeders have developed a variety of chicken that has no feathers. Which methods were most likely used to produce this variety?
A. Grafting and hybridization.
B. Regeneration and incubation.
C. Artificial selection and inbreeding.
D. Vegetative propagation and binary fission.
A chicken born without feathers was originally a mutation but farmers liked the idea since they wouldn't have to pluck them then. So when the non feathered chicken appeared they purposely bred it (called artificial selection) and when any non feathered offspring were bred together (inbreeding) to produce a whole new variety of chicken.
