Correct Answer: C
Solution :
[c] A: Gemmule is a tough-coated dormant cluster of embryonic cells produced by a freshwater sponge for development in more favourable conditions. B: Budding is a type of asexual reproduction which a daughter individual is formed from a small projection, the bud, arising from the parent body, e.g., yeast: Tuber is an underground stem structure which can take part in vegetative reproduction, e.g. Potato. D: Offset is a type of sub aerial or creeping stem. These are one internode long runners that occur in some aquatic plants. Breaking of offsets helps in propagation e.g., water hyacinth and water lettuce.
