Jumping Jack Flash is a champion racehorse. A special diet and daily exercise have made him the fastest horse in the country. In the wild, Jumping Jack Flash would survive longer than other horses because of his speed. Is this an example of natural selection?

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

I wouldn't say this is an example of natural selection. This is because if not in human care he wouldn't have been able to get this fast.
