Question

Select the INCORRECT statement.

• A. Hisardale is an example of cross-breeding experiment.
• B. Genetic mother in MOET technique serves for multiple ovulation.
• C. {Apis mellifera} and {Apis florea} are domesticated species of honey bee.
• D. Layers management includes processes like culling and debeaking.

Hint:

Only {Apis mellifera} and {Apis cerana indica} are commonly domesticated honey bees.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding domestication of honey bees.
Only a few species of honey bees are domesticated for commercial honey production and pollination.

Step 2: Analyzing each option.
(A) Hisardale is a sheep breed developed through cross-breeding, so this statement is correct.
(B) In MOET (Multiple Ovulation and Embryo Transfer) technique, the genetic mother is hormonally stimulated for multiple ovulation, hence correct.
(C) {Apis mellifera} is domesticated, but {Apis florea} is a wild species and not domesticated, making this statement incorrect.
(D) Culling and debeaking are standard practices in layers management, so this statement is correct.

Step 3: Conclusion.
Thus, option (C) is the incorrect statement.
