The correct Answer is:
To determine which organisms have intra-abdominal testes, we need to analyze the provided options based on the characteristics of their reproductive anatomy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Intra-abdominal Testes**: - Intra-abdominal testes are those that remain within the abdominal cavity. This is a characteristic feature of certain aquatic mammals, as they do not require the cooler external environment for spermatogenesis. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A: Panthera and Equus**: - Panthera (e.g., tigers, lions) and Equus (horses) are terrestrial mammals. They have extra-abdominal testes, which are located in the scrotum outside the abdominal cavity. Thus, this option is incorrect. - **Option B: Macaca and Macropus**: - Macaca (monkeys) and Macropus (kangaroos) are also terrestrial mammals. They possess extra-abdominal testes. Therefore, this option is also incorrect. - **Option C: Baleenoptera and Delphinus**: - Baleenoptera (a genus of whales) and Delphinus (dolphins) are aquatic mammals. They typically have intra-abdominal testes, making this option correct. - **Option D: Canis and Phallus**: - Canis (dogs) and Phallus (cats) are terrestrial mammals with extra-abdominal testes. Hence, this option is incorrect. 3. **Conclusion**: - The only option that correctly identifies organisms with intra-abdominal testes is **Option C: Baleenoptera and Delphinus**. ### Final Answer: Intra-abdominal testes are found in **Baleenoptera and Delphinus**. ---
