Solution
The correct option is D Multiplication by fragmentation
- Fragmentation is a mode of asexual reproduction that involves breaking the parent body into several fragments and each fragment develops into a new individual. Multicellular fungi, filamentous algae, and protonema of mosses show the fragments.
- They have a thin thread-like multicellular vegetative structure called hyphae/filaments/protonema which under certain environmental conditions may undergo irregularly sized pieces or fragments, with each having the capacity to develop into a new fungal hyphae or the plant
So, the correct answer is 'Multiplication by fragmentation'
