The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of selecting the incorrect pair with respect to animals and methods of breeding by which they were developed, we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Crossbreeding**: - Crossbreeding involves mating individuals from different breeds within the same species or closely related species to produce offspring with desirable traits. - Example: Current Swiss is a breed of cattle that is developed through crossbreeding, specifically with Sahiwal cows to enhance milk production. **Hint**: Look for pairs that involve different species or incorrect breeding methods. 2. **Analyzing Hisardales**: - Hisardales are produced through crossbreeding between Bikaneri ewes and Merino rams. This is a correct example of crossbreeding aimed at improving wool and milk production. **Hint**: Check if the animals in the pair belong to the same species or closely related species. 3. **Evaluating Mule**: - A mule is produced by mating a horse (Equus ferus caballus) with a donkey (Equus africanus asinus). This is an example of interspecific hybridization, meaning it occurs between different species. - Mules are typically infertile, which is a key characteristic of hybrids produced from different species. This makes the pairing incorrect in the context of traditional crossbreeding. **Hint**: Remember that hybrids from different species often have fertility issues. 4. **Considering Hini**: - Hini is a hybrid resulting from the mating of different species of horses and donkeys. This is a correct example of interspecific hybridization. **Hint**: Identify if the hybrid is fertile or infertile, as it can indicate the breeding method used. 5. **Conclusion**: - After analyzing all the pairs, the incorrect pair is the one involving the mule, as it represents interspecific hybridization rather than traditional crossbreeding. ### Final Answer: The incorrect pair with respect to animals and methods of breeding is the **Mule**, as it is produced through interspecific hybridization (between horse and donkey), not crossbreeding. ---
