  1. Semen is preserved for artificial insemination by heating

  2. Mating of an animal within the same breed, but having no common ancestors on either side of their pedigree upto 4 - 6 generations is called as outcrossing

  3. Example of interspecific hybridisation is mule

  4. Hinny is a hybrid between the female ass and stallion.

Show answer
Correct Option: A

When a species of an organism cannot form a zygote but the zygote survives, the phenomenon is known as

biology reproductive health stds and infertility gm crops biotechnology

  1. Hybrid vigour

  2. Hybrid sterility

  3. Hybrid zygote

  4. Hybrid fertility

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Hybrid zygotes sometimes develop into adults, such as mules (hybrids between female horses and male donkeys), but the adults fail to develop functional gametes and are sterile. This phenomenon is called as hybrid sterility. Thus, option B is correct. 

Heterosis, also called hybrid vigour, the increase in such characteristics as size, growth rate, fertility, and yield of a hybrid organism over those of its parents. Plant and animal breeders exploit heterosis by mating two different pure-bred lines that have certain desirable traits. Thus, option A is wrong. 
In some cases, no barriers exist to mating between members of different species. In these cases, the zygote formed is called a hybrid zygote. Thus, option C is wrong. 
Fertility ability of a hybrid is called as hybrid fertility. Thus, option D is wrong.

The ova are released by hormone induction and fertilization by artificial insemination and then embryo is stored at 4$^o$C for several years. This technique is known as

  1. Artificial insemination

  2. Embryo transplantation

  3. Super ovulation

  4. Preservation of embryo

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Embryo cryopreservation or preservation of embryo is generally performed as a component of in vitro fertilization which generally also include ovarian stimulation, ovarian hyperstimulation or superovulation, egg retrieval, artifical insemination and embryo transfer.

  1. Ice

  2. Liquid oxygen

  3. Liquid nitrogen

  4. Liquid CO$ _2$

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Artificial insemination is a globally accepted method of breeding cattle and is also effective for other species. Semen can be stored deep-frozen in liquid nitrogen, in a chilled liquid form or at room temperature. Its low temperature of $-196^0$C and inert caracteristics prevent the deterioration of biological quality. Hence, option C is correct.
