Solution

The correct option is A Species
Species have real existence. It is the lowermost taxon at the hierarchical level. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms where two hybrids are capable of producing fertile offspring, typically using sexual reproduction. A species is often defined as a group of individuals that actually interbreed in nature. In this sense, a species is the biggest gene pool possible under natural conditions.
