Asexual reproduction
In this mode of reproduction, young ones (Offsprings) are produced from a single
parent. The offsprings are genetically similar or identical to parents.
The different methods of asexual reproduction in animals are binary fission, budding,
multiple fission etc.
Binary fission
Unicellular organisms like Amoeba reproduce by this method. In this method two
Amoebae are produced from a single parent.
First the nucleus divides into two nuclei followed by the division of the body.
