(N/A)
< strong>Pollen tube < strong>Style
It is the structure formed when pollen lands on a suitable stigma. It grows out of the pollen grain and travels through the style to reach the ovary.It is the middle elongated part of the carpel which provides a path for the pollen tube to reach the ovary after pollination.

$(b)$
< strong>Fission in Amoeba < strong>Fission in Plasmodium
$(i)$ It shows binary fission.$(i)$ It shows multiple fission.
$(ii)$ The parent cell divides into two small,nearly identical daughter cells.$(ii)$ The parent cell divides into several small,nearly equal-sized daughter individuals.

$(c)$
< strong>Fragmentation < strong>Regeneration
It is a mode of asexual reproduction where the parent body splits into two or more fragments,and each fragment develops into an organism under favourable conditions,e.g.,$Spirogyra$.It is the ability to regrow lost body parts; it is used as a mode of reproduction in some organisms like $Hydra$ and $Planaria$.

$(d)$
< strong>Bud of Hydra < strong>Bud of Bryophyllum
It is an outgrowth formed on the body by regenerative cells. These buds develop into tiny individuals and detach from the parent body to become independent.In $Bryophyllum$,buds are produced in the notches along the leaf margin. These buds fall on the soil and develop into new plants.

$(e)$
< strong>Vegetative propagation < strong>Spore formation
It is a mode of asexual reproduction in which parts like the root,stem,and leaves develop into new plants under appropriate conditions.It is a mode of asexual reproduction commonly seen in organisms like fungi. They reproduce through spores,which are minute,single-celled structures protected by thick walls until they find a moist surface to grow.
