The correct answer is option d. "All of the above".

Explanation:

A species is defined as a group of similar living organisms, constituting the basic unit of taxonomic rank of an organism. In Biology an hybrid is considered a species. It doesn't matter if the hybrid comes from combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties or species Infertile hybrids such as mules and ligers are considered species as well.
