1. Asexual Reproduction Asexual reproduction involves only one parent.
All of the offspring are identical to the parent.

2. What are Clones?

3. Binary Fission Only single-celled organisms reproduce in this way.
The cell doubles its DNA, then splits into two cells
and each one is identical to itself.
Ex: bacteria, amoeba, algae

5. Budding
The parent organism produces a bud (a smaller version of itself), which eventually detaches itself from the
parent and becomes a self-sufficient 
individual - identical to the parent.
Coral also reproduces in this way, but do not detach themselves
Ex: (hydra, yeast, coral)

7. Spore Production
Spores are similar to seeds, but are produced by the division of 
cells on the parent, not by the union of two cells. One parent may 
produce many spores, each of which will grow into a new 
individual, identical to its parent. (fungi, green algae, moulds, ferns)

8. Vegetative Reproduction
It is the reproduction of a plant not involving a seed, including;
Cuttings: Where a piece of a stalk/stem is cut to include a node, then planted to reproduce a genetically identical offspring plant
Runners: Where a stem grows sideways, replanting itself and starts to grow a secondary, daughter plant (still attached)
EX: coleus plant, spider plants, strawberries, aspen, potatoes

10. Advantages Disadvantages Populations can grow very fast
There is no need for specialized reproductive cells
You only need one parent
Reproductive process is quick
Populations that have no genetic variations can be wiped out if there is an environmental change
