REPRODUCTION IN ORGANISMS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A hydra reproduces when an outgrowth, or bud, forms and continues to develop until if falls off of the parent. This is an example of:
A
Binary Fission
B
Sporulation
C
Budding
D
Vegetative Propagation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Budding is an asexual reproduction method in which a new organism develops from a bud of an existing organism. Until the new organism matures, it remains attached to the parent organism. Hydra and yeast, for example, reproduce by budding.

Detailed explanation-2: -In hydra, a bud develops as an outgrowth due to repeated cell division at one specific site. These buds develop into tiny individuals and, when fully mature, detach from the parent body and become new independent individuals.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hydra reproduces asexually by budding.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hydra is a freshwater, radially symmetrical animal under the phylum Cnidaria. It reproduces by regeneration and budding. A hydra possesses the ability to regenerate itself from small tissues or even some dissociated cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -The common asexual method of reproduction by hydras is budding. Buds originate at the junction of the stalk and gastric regions. The bud begins as a hemispherical outpouching that eventually elongates, becomes cylindrical, and develops tentacles. The bud then pinches off and a new individual becomes independent.
