The two types of organisms which produce colonies by the process of budding are:(a) Hydra and Corals    (b) Yeast and Sponges    (c) Corals and Sponges    (d) Hydra and Yeast

Correct Answer: (d) Hydra and Yeast

Explanation:

Hydra is a multicellular organism and Yeast is a unicellular organism that produces colonies through the process of budding.

Budding is a type of asexual reproduction. During budding, a small bulb-like projection known as the bud develops on the body of the parent organism. The bud continues to grow on the parent until it develops and matures into a miniature adult. After complete maturation, the bud pinches off from the parent's body and attains the ability to develop independently.

Hydra, yeast, and some bacteria like Caulobacter sp. reproduce by budding.
