Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Budding occurs in which of the following organisms?
A
Yeast
B
Amoeba
C
Hydra
D
Plasmodium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydra and yeast can reproduce by budding.

Detailed explanation-2: -Budding is a type of asexual reproduction. In hydra, a bud develops as an outgrowth due to repeated cell division. Now the nutrition for bud growth is provided by the parent hydra. The development showed by bud starts to develop small tentacles and a mouth.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Budding is a trait of a few unicellular organisms. Though, several metazoan animals frequently reproduce by budding. It is a mode of asexual reproduction seen in Hydra and Yeast.
