Answer:

Because they are sterile

Explanation:

<em>Mules are considered to be a weak hybrid and not a separate species because they are sterile and cannot produce progeny of their own.</em>

Mules are hybrid products from two separate species - a donkey and a horse.

A species is generally defined as a group of organisms that are capable of breeding to produce fertile offspring. <u>Hence, in order for them to have the potential of being categorized as a separate species, they must be able to produce their own progeny but this is not the case. </u>

Delvig [45]
Are there any statements given for this assignment? Because according to what I know, alligators and crocodiles are more related to birds because of archosaurian origins. However, crocodiles are more closely related to birds than snakes because the evolution of birds  from having snouts to beaks are slightly evident in crocodiles for they have more pointly snouts.
