**Step-by-Step Solution:**
1. **Identify the Statements**: The question asks which of the given statements is false. We need to evaluate each option carefully.
2. **Evaluate Option 1**: The first statement claims that "semen is preserved for artificial insemination by heating." This statement is false. In reality, semen is preserved by cooling it, often using liquid nitrogen, not heating.
3. **Evaluate Option 2**: The second statement claims that "the most common bee species in India is Apis indica." This statement is true. Apis indica is indeed the most common bee species found in India.
4. **Evaluate Option 3**: The third statement claims that "an example of inter-specific hybridization is mule." This statement is true. A mule is a hybrid resulting from the crossbreeding of a male donkey and a female horse, which is an example of inter-specific hybridization.
5. **Evaluate Option 4**: The fourth statement claims that "artificial insemination is injecting the semen into the vagina of the female." This statement is also true. Artificial insemination involves the introduction of semen into the female reproductive tract.
