Answer:
D. Jellyfish and Hydra reproduce asexually, whereas dogs and cats reproduce sexually
Explanation:
Asexual Reproduction
-One parent needed
-No sex cells
-Offspring produced by cell division
-Offspring identical to parent (same DNA)
Jellyfish and Hydra reproduce by budding
Budding is when an offspring grows out of the body of the parent.
Budding is also an example of asexual reproduction as it only needs one parent, there are no sex cells and it is a copy of the parent.
It is different than dogs and cats which they produce sexually
