Asexual Reproduction

One parent organism produces offspring without meiosis and fertilization

Offspring are genetically identical to each other and the parent

Fission

Mitotic Cell Division

Budding

Animal Regeneration

Vegetative Reproduction

Cloning

Cell division in prokaryotes That form two genetically identical cells.

This is more simple than mitosis

DNA molecules are copied and the cell elongates

The center pinches inward

Then the cell splits completely.

A new organism grows by mitosis and cell division on the body of its parent

The bud or offspring is genetically identical to the parent

When a bud becomes large enough it can break off and live on its own

In some cases it will remain attached and form a colony

Another type of asexual reproduction

occurs when an offspring grows from a piece of its parent

This can vary among animals

Is a form of asexual reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant

Usually involves roots, the stem and leaves

you can take a bud from one tree and put it on another this is called grafting

Is a type of asexual reproduction performed in a lab that produce identical individuals from a cell or from a cluster of cells taken from a multicellular organism
