Solution

The correct option is A Endomixis
Parthenogenesis is the production of an embryo from a female gamete without any genetic contribution from a male gamete, with or without the eventual development into an adult. It corresponds to endomixis since the nuclear reorganization leads to the formation of macronucleus which also results in rejuvenation of the organism.
So, the correct option is 'Endomixis'.
