Which form of reproduction is thought to be best in a stable environment? a. asexual b. sexual c. budding d. parthenogenesis

Budding is a form of asexual reproduction that results from the outgrowth of a part of a cell or body region Animal Reproduction and Development Access for free at openstax.org. leading to a separation from the original organism into two individuals. Budding occurs commonly in some invertebrate animals such as corals and hydras

The correct option is a. asexual
