Solution

The correct option is B species
Two individuals are considered to be of the same species, if they can reproduce to form fertile offsprings.
For example, male donkey and female horse can reproduce to give birth to mule. But mule does not have the ability to reproduce. Hence, donkey and horse cannot be of the same species.
