During asexual reproduction, the formation of Gemmules is seen in which of the following organisms ? Correct Answer Sponges
Concept:
- Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which new offsprings are produced by a single parent without the involvement of gametes or fertilization.
- Offspring produced by such reproduction are genetically identical copies of the parents.
- Asexual reproduction is of the following types:
- Binary fission
- Budding
- Fragmentation
- Gemma-cup formation
- Spore formation
- Vegetative propagation
- Gemmule formation
Explanation:
- Gemmules are small internal buds that are formed in Sponges. These are mode of asexual reproduction in sponges
- The gemmules are capable of producing the entire organism.
- The gemmules are thick-walled and they help the sponges to withstand unfavourable conditions, on the onset of favourable conditions the gemmules germinates to form the offspring
