Consider the following statements regarding inbreeding in animal husbandry:
| I. | Inbreeding refers to the mating of more closely related individuals within the same breed for 4-6 generations. |
| II. | Inbreeding increases homozygosity and is necessary if we want to evolve a pure line in any animal. |
| III. | Inbreeding exposes harmful recessive genes that are eliminated by selection and helps in the accumulation of superior genes. |
