Which of the following are considered pointed breeds?

Pointed breeds in rabbits are characterized by their distinctive color patterns, specifically having darker coloration on the ears, nose, feet, and tail, while the rest of the body is typically a lighter shade. The Californian and Himalayan breeds are classic examples of pointed breeds.

The Californian rabbit features a white body with darker markings on its extremities, while the Himalayan rabbit showcases a similar pattern, often with a black, blue, or chocolate coloration on the points. These traits are what classify them as pointed breeds, making option B the correct choice.

In contrast, the other groups of breeds listed do not exhibit the pointed pattern. The Netherland Dwarf and Angora breeds have more uniform color patterns. Satin and Rex rabbits are known for their unique fur textures rather than coloration patterns. New Zealand and Lop breeds also do not possess the pointed coloration traits of the Californian and Himalayan.
