What is a bud? Which organism reproduce by budding? Given the diagrammatic representation of budding in a plant.
Answers
1.Budding is the asexual mode of reproduction. In budding, a genetically identical new organism grows attached to the body of parent Hydra and separates later on.
2.In the process of budding, a bud develops as an outgrowth due to repeated cell division at one specific site. This bud grows randomly and there is no specific order or direction they follow. Example: Hydra,yeast, corals, flatworms, Jellyfish
Explanation:
1.Budding is an asexual mode of producing new organisms. In this process, a new organism is developed from a small part of the parent’s body.
2.A bud which is formed detaches to develop into a new organism. The newly developed organism remains attached as it grows further.
3.It is separated from the parent organism when it gets matured by leaving scar tissues behind. As this is asexual reproduction, the newly developed organism is a replica of the parent and is genetically identical.
4.Hydra uses regenerative cells where a bud expands as an outgrowth because of repeated cell division at one specific location.
5.These buds then developed into new small individuals which when completely matured, detach from the parent body.Hydra is exclusively a freshwater organism having different species.
6. It is very small, just a half centimetre long. It is a cnidarian having a tubular body which is composed of a head, distal end and afoot at the end.
Answer:
A bud is an outgrowth seen in a plant. Budding is a type of asexual reproduction. Organisms that reproduce by budding are Yeasts, Hydra, Corals etc. The process of reproducing an offspring through bud is called budding. A bud is the embryonic stage of a new organism. In budding, cells start dividing in a certain part of the plant, and these dividing cells form an outgrowth called the bud. This bud then grows and slowly detach from parent plant and grows as a new independent organism.
