(iii) Budding

 Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops
from a small outgrowth or bud-like structure.
 Sometimes, another bud arises from the previous bud forming a chain of buds
and giving rise to a number of a new individuals. A process of multiplying with
the help of the formation of buds is called budding.
 Some unicellular organisms, such as, yeast, reproduce by producing small
bud-like projection from their body. These outgrowths are called Buds. The
bud gradually grows and get detached from the parent cell and forms a new
organism.
