5.Hermaphrodism
Answers
Explanation:
Animals produce offspring through asexual and/or sexual reproduction. Both methods have advantages and disadvantages. Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent because the offspring are all clones of the original parent. A single individual can produce offspring asexually and large numbers of offspring can be produced quickly. In a stable or predictable environment, asexual reproduction is an effective means of reproduction because all the offspring will be adapted to that environment. In an unstable or unpredictable environment asexually-reproducing species may be at a disadvantage because all the offspring are genetically identical and may not have the genetic variation to survive in new or different conditions. On the other hand, the rapid rates of asexual reproduction may allow for a speedy response to environmental changes if individuals have mutations. An additional advantage of asexual reproduction is that colonization of new habitats may be easier when an individual does not need to find a mate to reproduce.

Answer:
Here is your answer
Explanation:
- 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. These buds develop into tiny individuals and, when fully mature, detach from the parent body and become new independent individuals.
- FRAGMENTATION
Fragmentation, also known as splitting, is a form of asexual reproduction in which an organism splits into fragments. Each fragment develops into a mature clone genetically and morphologically identical to its parent. The organism may develop specific organs or zones to shed or be easily broken off.
- BINARY FISSION
Binary fission, asexual reproduction by 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.
- PARTHENOGENESIS
“Parthenogenesis is the type of asexual reproduction involving the development of female gametes without any fertilization.” Animals such as bees, wasps, ants have no sex chromosomes. These organisms reproduce by parthenogenesis. A few plants, reptiles and fish are also capable of reproducing in this manner.
- HERMAPHORODITISM
Hermaphroditism occurs in animals where one individual has both male and female reproductive parts. ... Hermaphrodites may self-fertilize or may mate with another of their species, fertilizing each other and both producing offspring.
