What is true for mammalia :
A Platypus is oviparous
B Bats have feathers
C Elephant is ovoviviparous
D Diaphragm is absent in them

Detailed Solution

Most mammals are viviparous, but the monotremes, platypus (Ornithorhynchus) and spiny anteater (Echidna), lay eggs. So the platypus is oviparous; true.
Bats have hair, not feathers (feathers are found only in birds); elephants are viviparous; and all mammals have a diaphragm.
So the true statement is that platypus is oviparous.
