- In all types of asexual reproduction, one parent organism produces offspring without meiosis or fertilization.
- When offspring inherit all of their DNA from one parent, they are genetically identical.
- Cell division in prokaryotes is known as fission.
- Many unicellular eukaryotes reproduce by dividing into two offspring through mitosis and cell division. This form of reproduction is known as mitotic cell division.
- In budding, a new organism grows on the body of its parent by mitosis and cell division.
- In animal regeneration, a new animal grows from a piece of its parent.
- A form of asexual reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant is called vegetative reproduction.
- A type of asexual reproduction that produces identical individuals from a cell or cluster of cells taken from a multicellular organism is called cloning.
- Some plants can be cloned from just a few cells using a technique that takes a(n) tissue culture.
- Some animals have been cloned using the nucleus from a cell in one parent.
