Parthenogenesis is a mode of reproduction in which a haploid cell develops into an individual without undergoing fertilisation. This is an asexual mode of reproduction.

• A. True

In few organisms, like honey bees, haploid eggs develop into male drones without undergoing fertilisation. This process is called parthenogenesis. Since there is no fertilisation, this mode of reproduction is asexual.
