The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the given statements, we will analyze each one step by step: ### Step 1: Analyze Statement I **Statement I**: The eggs laid by alligator are cleidoic eggs. - **Explanation**: Cleidoic eggs are eggs that have a hard, calcareous shell, which provides protection to the developing embryo. Alligators, being reptiles, do lay cleidoic eggs. Therefore, this statement is **True**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement II **Statement II**: The eggs laid by Panthera leo are non-cleidoic in nature. - **Explanation**: Panthera leo refers to lions, which are mammals. Mammals, including lions, do not lay eggs; they give live birth (viviparous). Thus, this statement is **False**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement III **Statement III**: Platypus is an oviparous mammal. - **Explanation**: The platypus is indeed a unique mammal that lays eggs, making it an exception among mammals, which are typically viviparous. Therefore, this statement is **True**. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement IV **Statement IV**: The chances of survival of young ones is less in viviparous organisms. - **Explanation**: Viviparous organisms give birth to live young, which typically have a higher chance of survival compared to oviparous organisms, which lay eggs that can be vulnerable to predation and environmental factors. Hence, this statement is **False**. ### Conclusion Now, summarizing the results: - Statement I: True - Statement II: False - Statement III: True - Statement IV: False The correct codes are: **True, False, True, False**. ### Final Answer The correct answer is option 2, which corresponds to the evaluations of the statements. ---
