Solution

The correct option is C Male Platypus
The platypus a venom-producing mammal. In males, a pair of spurs is present on the hind limbs that produce venom in the breeding season. This venom is produced in the kidney-shaped alveolar glands called crural glands of the male. These glands are located in the upper thigh and are connected by a thin-walled duct to a calcaneus spur, or calcar, on each hind limb.
So, the correct answer is 'Male Platypus'.
