Solution
- Asexual reproduction in Hydra takes place through budding.
- Budding normally occurs in favorable conditions.
- In Hydra, a small outgrowth is produced towards the basal end of the body.
- It develops as a bud that grows and forms tentacles.
- This bud eventually develops (gets transformed) into a new individual.
- The young Hydra gets detached from the parent and becomes an independent new organism.
