Solution

The correct option is D Budding
Hydra reproduces by asexual mode of reproduction. It reproduces by budding. Budding is a type of asexual reproduction which does not involve the fusion of gametes. A new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site. The bud remains attached to the parent plant and separates after it gets mature. It leaves a scar at the point of separation. The newly developed organism is a clone to its parent cell.
So, the correct answer is option D.
