Question

Which of the following birds is viviparous?

• A. Ostrich
• B. Penguin
• C. Albatross
• D. None

Answer 1

The correct option is D None

Viviparous organisms are those that directly give birth to young ones while oviparous organisms are egg-laying creatures. Birds belong to the class Aves. Aves are classified as oviparous, warm-blooded organisms, their outer body is covered with feathers and the forelimbs are modified into wings. Since, ostrich, penguin and albatross are birds, they all lay eggs and are hence oviparous. There are no viviparous birds.

So the correct answer is 'None'.
