Answer 2

Asexual reproduction in Hydra:

The sequence of the asexual reproduction taking place in the hydra is given in the image below.

The process is called budding.

• Hydra is a freshwater organism.
• It has tubular body.
• It has head and body.
• The head has tentacles and the body is attached to the surface.

Budding process:

1. Due to repeated cell division, the small protruding structure appears on the parent organisms.
2. Continuous cell division takes place till the organism is matured.
3. Once the bud is matured then the bud gets detached from the parent organism.
4. When it is detached, it leaves tiny scar in the body of parent organism.

The child organism is clone of parent organism as it is an asexual reproduction.
