Define asexual reproduction. Describe two methods of asexual reproduction in animals.

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction when only one parent participates in the process of creating offspring.
This mode of reproduction results in progeny that are identical to their parents.
 Examples of asexual reproduction include binary fission, budding, fragmentation, etc.

Budding: In this mode, a section of the organism begins to protrude. It slowly expands and transforms into a distinct individual.
It slowly expands and transforms into a distinct individual.

Examples: Hydra, yeast

Binary Fission: A single cell divides into two parts in this type of asexual reproduction.
Bacteria and protozoans are examples.
