Which kingdom primarily carries out asexual reproduction through the process of budding?

Fungi
Monera
Protista
Plantae

The correct answer is: Fungi

Fungi primarily carry out asexual reproduction through the process of budding. This is because fungi are composed of individual filaments called hyphae, which can break off and form new growths through budding. Other options such as Monera and Protista may also reproduce asexually, but their methods may vary. Monera, for example, reproduce through binary fission where the parent cell divides into two cells, while Protista can reproduce through binary fission, multiple fission, or budding, but budding is not their primary method. Plantae mainly reproduce sexually through pollination and the production of seeds. Therefore, A is the most accurate answer as it states the kingdom that primarily carries out asexual reproduction through budding.
