Solution

The correct option is D

All of these


The correct answer is D.

The explanation for the correct answer:

  1. Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction wherein a single parent produces a new offspring.
  2. The new individuals are the clones of their parents.
  3. Example- Budding, binary fission, and spore formation are the different ways of asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction does not require gametic fusion and the offspring produced is identical to the parents.
  4. Binary fission- when a single organism undergoes cell division to form two separate offspring.
  5. Budding- a new organism grows from the body of the parent organism. It may separate from the parent or remain attached, forming colonies.
  6. Spore formation- Spores are unicellular reproductive bodies that are present in sporangia (sacs), which are released on maturation to further give rise to new individuals.

Final answer: Asexual reproduction takes place by all of these.
