Solution
The correct option is C Development of male honey bee (drone) from egg The drones or the male honey bees are developed from the unfertilised eggs laid by the female queen bee. These egg cells are haploid and have only one set of chromosomes. This one set codes for all the proteins required for the development of an individual. Budding, multiple fission and binary fission results in the development of the diploid organisms having the same set of chromosomes as in the parents.
