Solution

The correct option is B daughter cells in budding are smaller than those in fission compared to their parent cells
Budding in yeast starts with a small outgrowth on cell surface of yeast cell. This is followed by separation of daughter buds. The daughter cells produced in budding are usually smaller as compared to their parent cells. However, in case of binary fission,a single organism divides into two daughter cells of equal size.
