Model Answer

(B) Yeast

Yeast reproduces asexually by budding — it puts out small buds that separate and grow into new individuals.

Source: Chapter 7, Section 7.2.1 (Fission)

Explanation

The textbook explicitly states "Yeast, on the other hand, can put out small buds that separate and grow further." Planaria reproduces by regeneration, Plasmodium by multiple fission, and Spirogyra by fragmentation. This is a direct recall question — just identify the organism associated with budding.
