Asexual Reproduction



Asexual Reproduction: Unlike sexual reproduction, which requires two parents, asexual reproduction only requires one parent to make offspring. Generally used by unicellular organisms, some plants, and a few animals. Some forms of asexual reproduction are budding, in which a new organism grows from another, and eventually splits off to, fission, in which one organism divides into two, and in the case of these strawberry plants, sending off "runners" from one plant, which will sprout into more strawberry plants.
