This document discusses asexual reproduction, which is when a new organism is produced from one existing organism. There are several types of asexual reproduction including parthenogenesis, vegetative propagation, fragmentation/regeneration, fission, and budding. Parthenogenesis occurs when unfertilized eggs develop into genetically identical females. Vegetative propagation involves cutting pieces from plants to grow new plants. Fragmentation/regeneration is when organisms regrow lost or damaged tissues. Fission involves cell division to produce two identical cells. Budding occurs when a new organism forms on the parent and later separates.
