Question
Write a short note.
Budding in Hydra
Solution
- In Hydra, under favourable conditions, the regenerative cells of body wall are used for reproduction in the process of budding.
- When Hydra reaches maturity, the body wall begins to form an outgrowth from the stalk of the adult. It is called bud. This bud develops into a young Hydra.
- The dermal layers and the digestive cavity of the young Hydra are continuous with that of the parent Hydra. The young Hydra gets nourishment from the parent.
- When the young Hydra is sufficiently developed, it breaks off from the parent Hydra. Then, it leads an independent life.
