Question

what is budding?(2marks)

Answer 1

Budding, in biology, a form of asexual reproduction in which a new individual develops from some generative anatomical point of the parent organism. In some species buds may be produced from almost any point of the body, but in many cases budding is restricted to specialized areas. The initial protuberance of proliferating cytoplasm or cells, the bud, eventually develops into an organism duplicating the parent. The new individual may separate to exist independently, or the buds may remain attached, forming aggregates or colonies. Budding is characteristic of a few unicellular organisms (e.g., certain bacteria, yeasts, and protozoans). However, a number of metazoan animals (e.g., certain cnidarian species) regularly reproduce by budding.

Answer 2

in this reproduction a part of parent body starts growing out slowly inform of buds or bulges . after some development the bud detaches from the parent body and develop into new individual with increase in size and shape 
eg; hydra reproduces by budding
