The correct answer is (b) (ii) and (iii).
Explanation:
Jersey:
This breed originates from the Island of Jersey in the English Channel, making it an exotic breed.
Brown Swiss:
This breed also originates from outside India, specifically Switzerland, classifying it as an exotic breed.
Why other options are incorrect:
(i) and (iii):
While Brown Swiss is exotic, “Brawn” is not a recognized cattle breed, so this option is not entirely correct.
(i) and (iv):
“Brawn” is not a recognized cattle breed, and “Jersey Swiss” is likely a combination of the Jersey breed and Swiss breed, but not considered a distinct exotic breed on its own.
(ii) and (iv):
While Jersey is exotic, “Jersey Swiss” is not a recognized separate breed, making this option incorrect.
