Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Budding

• There are many different modes of asexual reproduction.
• There is the involvement of a single parent. Budding is one of the modes of asexual reproduction.
• The parent develops an outgrowth called bud. The bud remains attached to the parent body for some time.
• When the bud develops and gets matured, the bud gets detached from the parent body. This is commonly observed in Hydra. Budding also occurs in fungus-like yeast.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
