Solution

The correct option is B Plasmodium
Plasmodium is a malarial parasite which reproduces both inside mosquito and also in the human being. It chooses multiple fission, asexual mode of reproduction for producing the cells in the host. The specific reason behind organism reproducing by multiple fission is that it can divide itself into many cells at the same time inside the cyst during an unfavourable condition in the host. After the arrival of favourable conditions, the cyst breaks to release a large number of off-springs.
So, the correct answer is option 'Plasmodium'.
