    A. No, because budding is a type of asexual reproduction.

    Explanation:

    The buds on the side of the adult hydra is not an embryo because budding is a type of asexual reproduction.

    It is sexual reproduction that produces an embryo from the fusion of gametes.

    Hydra produces new ones by budding using part of its body wall. This process is simply an outgrowth from the body wall. An embryo is one of the stages of development of offspring originating from a zygote. It is begins at fertilization to the formation of body structures. Embryos are peculiar to organisms that reproduces sexually.

    A. No, because budding is a type of asexual reproduction.

    Explanation:

    Asexual reproduction is the process where an organism makes a copy of itself by itself. It does not require a mate to make offspring.

    The offspring are genetically identical to the parent.

    Budding is a type of asexual reproduction where a small outgrowth of the parent breaks off to become a new organism.

    Embryo development is usually only discussed in the context of sexual reproduction, where two gametes fertilize one another and a new organism that is genetically different to either parent is formed.
