discuss the effects of nutrition on breeding and hybridization
Answers
Human Nutrition deals with the nutrients in the foods, like, proteins, carbohydrates and fats (macro nutrients) which include various micro nutrients, like, vitamins, minerals and trace elements.
A balanced food provides good nutrition for the body and its maintenance. It is a good indicator of human health. There are various disorders associated with nutrition, such as, under nutrition and over nutrition. Anemia is a good example of under nutrition, while obesity is associated with over nutrition.
Nutritional problems are now accounted to life style disorders.
It is a good genetic engineering processes through which ‘genetic vigour’ is enabled and better progeny is envisaged. In simpler terms, random mating ( non preferential marriages) leads to hybridisation that keeps the species genetically stabilized.
