Solution

The correct option is A Intra-breeding
Intrabreeding is the process in which the organisms of the same species do breed with each other. This causes inbreeding depression in which the progeny becomes weaker due to the continuous breeding of the animals within the same species. Inbreeding depression can be reduced by cross-breeding.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
