Explanation

Gemmules and buds are asexual reproductive structures found in animals. Gemmules are found in sponges such as Sycon. They are ball-like structures with protective covering, which consists of calcareous spicules. Budding is a common mode of asexual reproduction found in Hydra where outgrowths called buds, arise from the body of the organism, which grow and give rise to the new organisms.
