Paedogenesis is reproduction by sexually mature larvae, usually without fertilization. Paedogenesis is a form of neoteny and is particularly marked in the axolotl, a larval form of the salamander, which retains its larval features owing to a thyroid deficiency but can breed, producing individuals like itself.

Hence option B is correct

Cladogenesis

the formation of a new group of organisms or higher taxon by evolutionary divergence from an ancestral form.

Paedogenesis

Paedogenesis is a form of neoteny and is particularly marked in the axolotl, a larval form of the salamander, which retains its larval features owing to a thyroid deficiency but can breed, producing individuals like itself

Morphogenesis

Related to architecture.

Parthenogenesis

reproduction from an ovum without fertilization, especially as a normal process in some invertebrates and lower plants.

B is correct one .

Hope this helps
