Help...ill give 50 POINTS and BRAINLIEST Selective breeding programs, such as those that produce throughbreds, and captive breeding programs, such as those used to increase the takhi population, have different outcomes. Which statement both describes an outcome of one type of breeding program and is supported by the information about the takhi?

Select one:
A. Long-term slective breeding for specialized traits produces high-quality genes that improve a species’s changes of continued survival.
B. The takhi captive breeding program has demonstrated that populations with genetic diversity have a greater likelihood that some individuals will have traits that favor survival.
C. The takhi captive breeding program has proven that only a few individuals are necessary to produce a population with traits that ensure survival.
D. Long-term selective breeding for specialized traits can make it less likely that individuals will express desired traits.

A breeding program is a program to increase the population of a species so captive breeding programs are used to replenish the wild populations of endangered species which is the answer under A. It's basically what happened to the pandas, they were bred in captivation to ensure that they wouldn't dissapear completely or become extinct.

Explanation:

Several tests have been evaluated in horses for quantifying insulin dysregulation to support a diagnosis of equine metabolic syndrome. Comparing the performance of these tests in the same horses will provide clarification of their accuracy in the diagnosis of equine insulin dysregulation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the agreement between basal serum insulin concentrations (BIC), the oral sugar test (OST), the combined glucose-insulin test (CGIT), and the frequently sampled insulin-modified intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIGTT). Twelve healthy, light-breed horses. Randomized, prospective study. Each of the above tests was performed on 12 horses. Minimal model analysis of the FSIGTT was considered the reference standard and classified 7 horses as insulin resistant (IR) and 5 as insulin sensitive (IS). In contrast, BIC and OST assessment using conventional cut-off values classified all horses as IS. Kappa coefficients, measuring agreement among BIC, OST, CGIT, and FSIGTT were poor to fair. Sensitivity of the CGIT (positive phase duration of the glucose curve >45 minutes) was 85.7% and specificity was 40%, whereas CGIT ([insulin]45 >100 μIU/mL) sensitivity and specificity were 28.5% and 100%, respectively. Area under the glucose curve (AUCg0-120 ) was significantly correlated among the OST, CGIT, and FSIGTT, but Bland-Altman method and Lin's concordance coefficient showed a lack of agreement. Current criteria for diagnosis of insulin resistance using BIC and the OST are highly specific but lack sensitivity. The CGIT displayed better sensitivity and specificity, but modifications may be necessary to improve agreement with minimal model analysis. Copyright © 2016 The Authors.
