Option 3 : C only
Concept:
- Every organism has some different characteristics.
- The type characteristics are based on their anatomy, morphology, evolutionary history, and features of embryological development.
- These characters play an important role in carrying on the progeny.
Oviparous animals
- Those animals which lay eggs are called oviparous animals.
- The fertilized eggs have calcareous shells and young ones hatch out after a period of incubation.
- Example: reptiles, birds, hens etc. Hence, statement 2 is true.
Viviparous animals
- The animals which give birth to young ones are called viviparous animals.
- The fertilized egg (zygote) has no shell and develops into a young one inside the body of the female organism.
- Example: the majority of mammals including human beings.
Explanation:
Egg-laying animals are also known as Oviparous.
Thus Turtle, Python, Eagle, Lizard and Honey bee all are egg-laying animals
Turtles:
- Some turtles are carnivores (meat-eaters), others are herbivores (plant eaters) and some are omnivores (a mixture of the two!).
Pythons:
- Pythons, unlike many other snake species, do not produce venom and are therefore non-venomous.
Eagles:
- Eagles are at the top of the food chain. Eagles have incredible vision and can spot prey up to two kilometres away.
- Their Grip is up to 10 Times Stronger than humans.
Lizards:
- Chameleons can change colour, and lizards can detach their tails.
- The majority of lizards can swim. Lizards have a cold-blooded nature.
Honey bees:
- Only female bees have the ability to sting.
- Stingers are not present in male bees.
