True or False:Budding is an example of asexual reproduction used by unicellular fungi known as yeasts.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Budding is a type of asexual reproduction, which is most commonly associated in both multicellular and unicellular organisms. Bacteria, yeast, corals, flatworms, Jellyfish and sea anemones are some animal species which reproduce through budding.

Detailed explanation-2: -Budding is characteristic of a few unicellular organisms (e.g., certain bacteria, yeasts, and protozoans). However, a number of metazoan animals (e.g., certain cnidarian species) regularly reproduce by budding.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both haploid and diploid yeast cells can reproduce asexually by budding, in which a small bud emerges from the mother cell, enlarges until reaching a certain size, and then separates from the mother cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Budding is a form of asexual reproduction that results from the outgrowth of a part of a cell or body region leading to a separation from the original organism into two individuals. Budding occurs commonly in some invertebrate animals such as corals and hydras.

Detailed explanation-5: -Yeast usually asexually reproduce by a method called budding. A small knob or bud forms on the parent cell, grows, and finally separates to become a new yeast cell. This new yeast cell is genetically identical to the parent cell.
