What is asexual reproduction?

• Asexual reproduction is the process by which an organism produces offspring that are genetically identical to itself.
• Asexual reproduction is the process by which an organism produces offspring that are a combination of its own genes and the genes of another organism.
• Asexual reproduction is the process by which an organism produces offspring by 2 parents chromosomes.

• Asexual reproduction is the process by which an organism produces offspring that are genetically different from itself.

What is sexual reproduction?

• Process of combining genetic material from one organism to produce offspring.
• Process of combining genetic material from two organisms to produce offspring.

Describe budding in asexual reproduction?

• Budding is a form of sexual reproduction where two organisms exchange genetic material.
• Budding is a form of asexual reproduction where a new organism develops from a seed.
• Budding is a form of reproduction where an organism splits into two identical organisms.
• Budding is a form of asexual reproduction where a new organism develops as an outgrowth or bud from the parent organism.

Describe asexual reproduction through binary fission.

• Asexual reproduction through binary fission is a process in which a single organism divides into two identical daughter cells.

What is vegetative asexual reproduction?

• A form of reproduction in plants where new individuals are produced from the flowers of the parent plant.
• A form of reproduction in plants where new individuals are produced from the seeds of the parent plant.
• A form of reproduction in plants where new individuals are produced from the roots of the parent plant.
• A form of reproduction in plants where new individuals are produced from vegetative parts of the parent plant without the involvement of seeds or spores.
