asexual reproduction Flashcards
binary fission
nuclear material and cytoplasm divide equally
ex. ameba and bacteria
asexual reproduction
also uses mitosis
new cells are identical
offspring are clones of parents
no variation unless there is a mutation
unicellular budding
cytoplasm divides unequally creating a smaller bud
ex. yeast
budding multicellular
outgrowth from the body of a parent that develops into a complete organism. may detach or remain attached
sporulation
specialized cells released enclosed by protective capsules develop into a new organism when environmental conditions allow
regeneration
development of a lost part of original organism
natural vegetation propagation
asexual reproduction in a plant. leaves, stem, roots, NOT THE FLOWER ( for more details see the pack on vegetative propagation)
artificial vegetative propagation
artificial asexual reproduction don’t by humans. offspring are genetically identical. keeps all the good traits. fast. seedless
