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.

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.
