Question

Select the option having the correct matching of the organism given in Column I with the mode of reproduction in Column II:

	Column I		Column II
P	Leishmania	1.	Regeneration
Q	Spirogyra	2.	Multiple Fission
R	Planaria	3.	Binary Fission
S	Plasmodium	4.	Fragmentation
		5.	Budding

Options

• P-4, Q-2, R-1, S-3

• P-3, Q-4, R-5, S-2

• P-3, Q-4, R-1, S-2

• P-4, Q-3, R-2, S-1

Answer 1

P-3, Q-4, R-1, S-2

Explanation:

	Column I		Column II
P	Leishmania	3.	Binary Fission
Q	Spirogyra	4.	Fragmentation
R	Planaria	1.	Regeneration
S	Plasmodium	2.	Multiple Fission

• Leishmania (P) reproduces by binary fission (3), using a whip-like flagellum.
• Spirogyra (Q) reproduces through fragmentation (4), when a filament breaks into fragments and develops.
• Planaria (R) reproduces by regeneration (1), with the ability to rebuild body parts.
• Plasmodium (S) reproduces by multiple fission (2) (produces many daughter cells at once).
