Which of the following reproductive types is also called pseudogamy?

Correct option is B

→ Gynogenesis (pseudogamy) involves egg development triggered by sperm, but the sperm does not contribute genetically.
→ Offspring inherit only maternal chromosomes.
→ Seen in some fish and amphibian species.
Information Booster:
→ Requires sperm only as an activation stimulus.
→ Produces clonal female lineages, useful for evolutionary studies.
→ Common in Poeciliid fishes like Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa).
Additional Information (Other Options):
(a) Androgenesis: Only paternal genome is expressed.
(c) Parthenogenesis: Embryo forms without fertilization.
(d) Hybridogenesis: Hybrid inherits genome from one parent each generation.
