REPRODUCTION IN ORGANISMS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process where a new organism grows by mitosis and cell division on the body of its parent:
A
zygote
B
budding
C
meiosis
D
cloning
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In budding, a new organism grows by mitosis and cell division on the body of its parent. Budding produces offspring genetically identical to its parent.

Detailed explanation-2: -2) Budding: Small growth on surface of parent breaks off, resulting in the formation of two individuals. Occurs in yeast and some animals (like the hydra below). Hydra reproduce asexually through budding.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is budding? 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-4: -Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. During mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Budding is a kind of asexual reproduction, which is most frequently related in both multicellular and unicellular organisms. Bacteria, yeast, corals, flatworms, jellyfish, and sea anemones are several animal species which reproduce through budding.
