The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for a mode of reproduction that involves only one parent. This means we are looking for a type of reproduction that does not require a male and female partner. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options given are: - A) Asexual reproduction - B) Sexual reproduction - C) Internal fertilization - D) Bisexual 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Asexual Reproduction**: This type of reproduction involves only one parent. It can occur through methods like budding, fission, or fragmentation, where offspring are produced without the involvement of gametes from another parent. - **Sexual Reproduction**: This mode requires two parents (male and female) and involves the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg). Therefore, this option is not correct. - **Internal Fertilization**: This refers to the process where fertilization occurs inside the female body, which also requires both male and female gametes. Hence, this option is incorrect. - **Bisexual**: This term refers to organisms that have both male and female reproductive organs. It implies the involvement of two parents in reproduction, making this option incorrect as well. 4. **Conclusion**: After analyzing all the options, the only mode of reproduction that involves only one parent is **Asexual Reproduction**. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the correct answer is **Asexual Reproduction**. ---
