Which of these is the method of reproduction for hydra?
A
fission
B
animal regeneration
C
budding
D
vegetative reproduction
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydra reproduces by forming small buds on its body which later develop into tiny individuals. When mature, these tiny individuals detach from the parent body and become new independent individuals. This method is called budding. Hydra also reproduces by fragmentation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hydra reproduces asexually by budding. A bud begins to form on the tubular body of an adult Hydra. The bud develops a mouth and tentacles.

Detailed explanation-3: -budding, in biology, a form of asexual reproduction in which a new individual develops from some generative anatomical point of the parent organism. In some species buds may be produced from almost any point of the body, but in many cases budding is restricted to specialized areas.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Hydra undergoes an asexual mode of reproduction by process of budding. In the asexual mode of reproduction, no gametes are involved.
