    False

    Explanation:

    A species is a collection of organisms that are not just capable of mating, but whose mating results in the production of fertile progeny.

    Organisms that are of the same species have somewhat similar genomes but not without some variations. Genetic variation occur in individuals of the same species due to a number of factors including:

    Genetic recombination and crossing over during meiosis Mutation of genes Random mating

    Hence, organisms of the same species hardly have the same genes except for cloned or vegetatively/asexually produced organisms.
