Most complex animals do not reproduce asexually. Single celled animals reproduce asexually by primary division (splitting into two equal sized daughter cells) or by budding (producing a second cell that is much smaller than the parent cell). Both these methods of reproduction produce offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.

All male (drone) honey bees are produced through parthenogensis.

Some more complex animals can reproduce via parthenogenesis this includes some species of sharks, Komodo Dragons and other reptiles. This generally occurs when there are no males available. Depending on the genetic makeup of the sex chromosomes of each species all offspring produced are either male or female.

Well that's a nice question but I think that they do reproduce asexually there are types of things reproduce like Komodo dragons and hydras and how. They can do it in three ways: binary fission,budding,regeneration

Sexually. Hence the root word 'sex'. Asexually mean you onky need one pare t to reproduce. That's what bacteria does. That's why dogs hump, it's part of their mating process.

Do all animals have the ability to reproduce asexually?

No, animals either reproduce sexually or asexually. In sexual reproduction, two parents are required and an offspring is born with inherited genes/characteristics of both parents. In asexual reproduction, only one parent is required to produce an offspring and that offspring has all the characteristics of the parent. Humans reproduce sexually, whereas single-celled organisms like amoebas reproduce asexually.
