Solution

The correct option is A budding and fragmentation
Hydra reproduces by the mechanism of budding and fragmentation. It cannot undergo multiple fission since that is not a viable option for a multicellular organism such as Hydra. Spore formation is an asexual method of reproduction, mostly seen in fungi.
