A pollen grain from one flower fertilizes another flower, resulting in the development of a seed.
A yeast offspring grows out of the body of its parent in a process called budding.

Answer 1

Correct:
- A frog releases sperm over eggs that were laid by another frog, and these cells fuse together.
- A pollen grain from one flower fertilizes another flower, resulting in the development of a seed.

Both involve fusion of gametes (fertilization), which is sexual reproduction. The others (binary fission, budding, regeneration/fragmentation) are asexual.
