Question

Choose the organisms which cannot reproduce through budding :

• A. Scypha
• B. Hydra
• C. Yeast
• D. Plasmodium

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Plasmodium

• Budding is seen in organisms like yeast, Hydra, some bacteria, and jellyfish—not Plasmodium.

• Plasmodium reproduces by multiple fission, a process where the nucleus divides several times before the cell divides into many daughter cells.

• This method of reproduction is distinctly different from budding.

Plasmodium is an organism that cannot reproduce through budding.
