Question

Which type of stimulus is used to achieve parthenogenetic development?

• A. Chemical
• B. Change in pH
• C. Pricking with microneedle
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

The stimulus which are used to induce artificial parthenogenesis are chemicals like salts, weak acids, organic solvents, (chloroform) urea, sucrose, strychnine and physical stimuli like temperature, electric shock or mere shaking, a needle smeared with blood (egg of frog) and saline solution (egg of sea urchin).

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
