The correct answer is B hybridization.

Hybridization presents an event of two different species mating and producing hybrid offspring. This happens without human intervention sometimes, as in the case of two different species of frog from the Rana genus.

The hybrid individuals posses mixed traits of both species and are often sterile because of the genetic and reproductive differences between the parent species.
