one major limitation of the biological species concept is:
it includes asexual organisms
it works well for fossils
it doesnt apply to extinct species
it defines species by dna
The Biological Species Concept defines a species as a group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Asexual organisms do not interbreed, so they are not included. Fossils cannot be observed for interbreeding, so it does not work well for fossils. It does not define species by DNA. However, it cannot be applied to extinct species as we cannot observe their interbreeding behavior.
