Solution
Budding in Hydra – Explanation:
- Formation of a Bud: A small outgrowth or bud develops on the body of the Hydra due to repeated cell division at a specific site.
- Growth of the Bud: The bud enlarges and develops tentacles and a mouth, resembling the parent organism.
- Separation from Parent: Once fully developed, the bud detaches from the parent body and becomes an independent Hydra.
- New Hydra Formation: The detached Hydra grows into an adult and continues the process of reproduction.
