13. Asexual Reproduction
• Asexual
Reproduction
• 1. One parent

• 3. Offspring produced by cell
division
• 4. Offspring identical to
parent (same DNA)

parent’s size
• 4. Daughter cells grow, then
divide too
• 5. In bacteria
15. Types of Asexual
Reproduction
• Budding • 1. Small bud grows out of
parent cell
• 2. Two different sized cells
made (with identical DNA)
• 3. Bud breaks off and grows
• 4. In yeast and hydra
16. Types of Asexual
Reproduction

parts
• 2. Left over cells divide to
make more cells
• 3. Lobsters, starfish, lizards
