- As the species do not change with time, therefore they are considered as static groups
- Metabolism and response to external stimuli are considered as the defining properties of living organisms
- Hibiscus rosa - sinensis belongs to the same family to which Althaea rosea and Gossypium hirsutum belong to

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Sexual reproduction, a key feature of species, results in the production of offsprings different from the parents due to recombination and mutations. This shows that the species may change with time. Thus, the species are really dynamic groups and not static as held earlier.
