Development of egg/gamete into embryo without fertilisation

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
The development of an egg/gamete into an embryo without fertilization is known as Parthenogenesis.
Parthenogenesis is a form of reproduction in which an egg can develop into an embryo without being fertilized by a sperm.
Parthenogenesis is derived from the Greek words for “virgin birth,” and several insect species including aphids, bees, and ants are known to reproduce by parthenogenesis.
