Q

Budding

A

Process of asexual reproduction where the parent cell divides itself disproportionately.

17
Q

Binary fission

A

Process of asexual reproduction where the parent cell divides itself equally.

18
Q

Regeneration

A

Process of cell division where an organism regrows and entire body part. For example a starfish can regrow and arm

19
Q

Cell division

A

Process by which a cell divides into 2 daughter cells. The daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
