How do Organisms Reproduce? 2 marks Easy
Draw a labelled diagram in proper sequence to show budding in hydra.

Answer

A bud forms on the parent Hydra, grows, develops tentacles and a mouth, and detaches as a new Hydra.

Labelled diagram in sequence (see the figure): (1) Parent Hydra: a small bud appears as an outgrowth on the body wall, formed by repeated cell division at one site. (2) The bud grows larger. (3) The bud develops a mouth and tentacles at its free end and becomes a tiny Hydra, still attached to the parent. (4) The mature bud detaches from the parent and lives as a new, independent Hydra. Labels: bud, parent Hydra, tentacles, basal disc, new Hydra.
