Question

Select the correct statement for the process of budding in Yeast :
(I) A bud arises from a particular region on a parent body.
(II) A parent cell divides into two daughter cells, here the parental identity is not lost.
(III) Before detaching from the parent body a bud may form another bud.
(IV) A bud when detaches from the parent body grows into a new individual.

• A. I, II and III
• B. II, III and IV
• C. III, IV and I
• D. IV, I and II

Answer 1

The correct option is B II, III and IV

• Budding is a type of asexual reproduction, in which a small outgrowth can arise from any part of the parent body called a bud and parental identity is not lost.
  
• The nucleus divides to form two daughter nuclei, of which one passes into the bud.
• The bud now detaches from the parent body and grows independently as a new individual or may remain attached to the parent body, forming a chain of cells.

So the correct answer is option B.
