Answer: The correct answer is - If populations can interbreed, they are considered one species.

According to the biological species concept, organisms capable of interbreeding with each other and producing viable fertile offsprings belong to same species.

Speciation is an evolutionary process in which organisms evolve and form new species.

Thus, for speciation ( formation of new species), reproductive isolation would be required as otherwise the organisms will be considered as same species.

That organ is called the rectum, or more coomonly, the anus. The rectum is the final part of the large intestine and the digestive system, where food that has had all its nutrients extracted (as much as possible, anyway) is sent to be compacted and sent out through the anus in the form of excreta.
