Which of the following results from conjugation in Paramecium?
Correct answer: B. Cell division
- A. Cell death
- B. Cell division
- C. Budding
- D. Recombination
Explanation
The process of sexual reproduction in paramecium is termed conjugation. During conjugation, two sexually opposite paramecium mate and exchange their hereditary material. At last, it results in the formation of a diploid zygote. The zygote becomes the new paramecium by meiosis. Hence, cell division is the result of conjugation in paramecium.
