Question

Match Column - I with Column - II considering mode of asexual reproduction. 
Column - I                  Column - II 
a) Binary fission          i) Spirogyra 
b) Conidia                   ii) Yeast 
c) Budding                  iii) Amoeba 
d) Fragmentation        iv) Penicillium 
 

• A. a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i
• B. a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
• C. a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
• D. a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv

Hint:

In asexual reproduction, different methods are used by various organisms, such as binary fission in Spirogyra and budding in yeast.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the modes of asexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction occurs without the involvement of gametes and includes several types such as binary fission, budding, conidia, and fragmentation. Let's match these with the organisms that use these methods.
Step 2: Analyzing the options.
(A) Binary fission: Correct match is with iii Spirogyra, which reproduces by binary fission.
(B) Conidia: Correct match is with iv Penicillium, which produces conidia as a form of asexual reproduction.
(C) Budding: Correct match is with ii Yeast, which reproduces by budding.
(D) Fragmentation: Correct match is with i Amoeba, which reproduces by fragmentation.
Step 3: Conclusion.
The correct matching is a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i.
