CBSEENBI12003022

An irregular mode of reproduction resulting in the development of an embryo without fertilization is called

(I) parthenogenesis

(II) apogamy

(III) sporophytic budding

Select the correct answer using the code given below.

  • Only I

  • Only II

  • II and III

  • I, II and III

Solution

D.

I, II and III

In parthenogenesis formation of fruit occurs without fertilisation In apogamy haploid (n) vegetative cell forms embryo without gametogenesis and fertilisation, In sporophytic budding diploid (2n) vegetative cell forms embryo from bud by vegetative reproduction Thus, all of these processes are irregular modes of reproduction.
