Question

Which of the following statements is not correct regarding oviparous animals?

• A. Females lay fertilized/unfertilized eggs at a safe place.
• B. Development of zygote takes place outside the female's body.
• C. Examples of oviparous animals are all birds, most reptiles and egg-laying mammals.
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is D None of these

Oviparous animals are animals that lay eggs. Fertilization can be external or internal, but the development of the embryo takes place outside the mother's womb. Fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and few exceptional mammals (duck-billed platypus), are oviparous. Oviparous animals usually lay their eggs in well-protected nests,

Since all the statements are correct, therefore, the correct option is 'None of these'.
