Solution

The correct option is C 1 - R, 2 - P, 3 - S and 4 - Q
The production of offsprings by a single parent without the formation and fusion of gametes is called asexual reproduction. Certain organisms like algae and fungi reproduce asexually by special reproductive structures.

Examples include the following:
  • Chlamydomonas - Zoospores (motile spores)
  • Sponge – Gemmules (internal buds)
  • Penicillium - Conidia (spores produced at the tip of the special hyphae called conidiophore)
  • Hydra – External bud.
