Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which only one parent is involved to reproduce offspring. In asexual reproduction,the offsprings produced are exact copies of their parents. It is generally observed in very small sized organisms. Binary fission, Budding, Fragmentation etc.
BUDDING:HYDRA:
A small part of the body of parent organism grows out as a bud which then detaches and become a new organism. For Example: Hydra, Yeast. These organism use regenerating cells. First a small outgrowth called bud is formed on the side of its body by division of its cells.
BINARY FISSION:AMOEBAE:
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.
hope that the diagrams are clear.
