Q.7
Consider the following statements and choose the correct option: Statement 1: Jack observed a species of single-celled organisms in a laboratory that reproduce by dividing into two daughter cells, each genetically identical to the parent. This type of reproduction is called budding.
Statement 2: Mark observed a type of asexual reproduction in yeast cells, where a smaller cell grows off the surface of a larger cell and eventually separates. This type of reproduction is called regeneration.
