Solution

The correct option is A Oviparous
Oviparous animals can reproduce by laying eggs. This is how most fish, amphibians, reptiles, insects, and arachnids reproduce. All birds and monotremes also reproduce like this. But, viviparous animals are born as the live young individuals.

So the correct answer is oviparous.

The correct option is B.
