Question

Budding is seen in which of the following organisms?
i) Planaria
ii) Hydra
iii) Yeast

• A. I and II
• B. II and III
• C. I and III
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B II and III

Planaria reproduces asexually by the mechanism of fragmentation.

Hydra and yeast both reproduce by the mechanism of budding wherein a small outgrowth or bud arises from the parent organism and slowly grows into a complete organism via cell division in the bud. Eventually, the developed organism detaches from the parent and becomes an independent organism.
