Solution
In hydra, first, a small outgrowth called bud is formed on the side of its body by the repeated mitotic divisions of its cells. Thus bud then grows gradually to form a small Hydra by developing a mouth and tentacles. And finally, the tiny new hydra detaches itself from the body of parent Hydra and lives as a separate organism. In this way, the parent Hydra has produced a new Hydra
