Question

define pedigree

Explanation:

In the context of language and terminology (related to Linguistics or Etymology in Arts), a pedigree is a record of the descent of a person, animal, or plant, showing it from ancestors; it can also refer to the origin or history of something, or the quality of having a good or noble ancestry (e.g., a dog with a fine pedigree has documented, often distinguished, ancestral lines).

Answer:

A pedigree is a record of the lineage (descent) of a person, animal, or plant, tracing their ancestry; it can also denote the origin/history of something or the quality of having (often noble/good) ancestral roots (e.g., in breeding, a pedigree dog has a documented, distinguished family line of ancestors).
