Binary fission, asexual reproductionby a separation of the body into two new bodies. In the process of binary fission, an organism duplicates its genetic material, or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and then divides into two parts (cytokinesis), with each new organism receiving one copy of DNA

Binary fission is the primary method of reproduction of prokaryoticorganisms. In protists, binary fission is often differentiated into types, such as transverse or longitudinal, depending on the axis of cellseparation. Regular transverse fission in some organisms, such as tapeworms and scyphostome polyps, is called strobilation. Commonly, this results in a chain, called a strobilus, of the fission products—the proglottids of tapeworms and the ephyrae of scyphozoan jellyfish; each proglottid or ephyra matures in turn and separates from the end of the strobilus. A few metazoan (multicellular) species regularly undergo a body division into several units simultaneously, a process called fragmentation. Planarianfission and fragmentation generally represent direct reproduction in which each portion regenerates missing parts to become a complete new animal. Strobilation products, however, are only indirectly reproductive: proglottids are not regenerative but carry and release great numbers of eggs and die; ephyrae do not produce new polyps but mature into sexually reproducing medusae, the larvae of which become polyps.


Budding
Budding is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site. The small bulb like projection coming out from the yeast cell is called a bud
