-As we have learnt:

Fragmentation:

  • The parent organism can be divided into many pieces called fragments. 
  • Each piece will develop into a complete individual.
  • A great example of fragmentation can be seen in spirogyra. 
  • Spirogyra is a green alga that floats freely on freshwater ponds. Under a microscope, it can be seen as a rectangular cell with a nucleus in the vacuole located in the centre. 
  • The rectangular cells are joined together in long strands called a filament.
  • When a filament is divided into many pieces, each piece will grow into individual filaments.

-Hence, the correct answer is option b.
