What is a advantage of asexual reproduction?

• • can increase populations rapidly
  • does not require a mate for reproduction to take place
• lack of diversity the offspring looks the same as the parent.

What is budding?

• the organism produce its own spores. These spores are genetically identical to the parent

• only one parent provides DNA for the new organism, which would make the new organism or offspring genetically identical to its one parent.

• A new organism is created from the roots, stems or leaves.

• develops an outgrowth which is detached from the parent and becomes a new individual.
