Asexual reproduction takes place through budding in (a) Amoeba (b) Yeast (c) Plasmodium (d) Leishmania

Solution:

(b) Yeast

Yeast is an example for asexual reproduction taking place through budding. A small protuberance is produced on the parent cell that grows in full size forming a bud. In the parent cell, the daughter nucleus splits and migrates to the daughter cell. By forming a constriction, the bud detaches from the mother’s body at the base. This process of budding continues to form a chain of bud cells. The mother cell is smaller than the daughter cell.
