Can reproduce very quickly
Do not ever have mutations

sprouting
budding
regeneration
parthenogenesis
When plants reproduce sexually, the pollen from the anthers is transferred to the stigma of the flower. This process is known as...
pollination
fertilization
transpiration
regeneration

A cnidarian produces a bud that grows and then pinches off to form a new organism
An insect develops from an unfertilized egg, known as parthenogenesis
A female perch (fish) lays eggs in the water that are then fertilized by a male perch
