Question 11 • FL-2002040-M/J Comprehensive Science 1 A-CR

Scientists crossed two different species of fruit trees. This produced offspring whose fruit had characteristics of each parent.What is most likely true about the offspring?

Answer
A
They are the same species as the male parent.
B
They will not be able to produce offspring.
C
They are the same species as the female parent.
D
They will be able to produce offspring.

Explanation

The offspring are hybrids because they have characteristics from two different species. Hybrids from different species are often unable to reproduce because their inherited genetic material may not work together well enough to produce fertile offspring. So the most likely statement is that they will not be able to produce offspring.
