Question

Several scientist gave different definition of species . One of those definitions, a population or group of populations whose members have the potential in nature to interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Which of the statement is related to this definition?

• B. Species that reproduce asexually only
• C. Specie that form sterile hybrids upon mating
• D. Extinct forms of life, based on fossil evidence
• E. Species living on separate continents

Answer 1

The correct option is A Species that reproduce sexually

Species are the group of populations including the individuals that can interbreed to produce fertile offspring. This means species reproduce sexually as interbreeding is sexual reproduction; asexual reproduction does not include interbreeding of individuals where offsprings are produced from the single parent only.Thus, the correct answer is option A.
