Solution

The correct option is B 2500-3000
Average number of ova produced by female frogs is 2500 - 3000 at a time. Fertilisation is external in the case of frogs and occurs in water. The eggs are released into the water and there is a risk of the ova (gametes) getting destroyed by external factors in the environment. Therefore, a large number of ova are produced to increase the probability of fertilisation.
