Solution

The correct option is D P – Gemmules, Q – Regeneration, R – Budding


Sponges reproduce by producing gemmules. A gemmule is a tough-coated dormant cluster of embryonic cells produced by a freshwater sponge for development in more favourable conditions. Planaria can be cut into pieces, and each piece can regenerate into a complete organism. Hydra reproduces by the formation of buds. These buds can stay attached to the parent or can detach to exist as a separate organism.
