Best Answer

The bacterias that causes pink eye are all asexual:

staphylococci pneumococci and streptococci.

staphylococci is asexual (Regeneration is a specialized form of asexual reproduction; by regeneration some organisms (e.g., the starfish and the salamander) can replace an injured or lost part, and many plants are capable of total regeneration)

pneumococci reproduce by asexual division.

streptococci - reproduces by asexual reproduction along a central axis creating either pairs of bacterium or long chains depending on culture media.

How did I come to this conclusion - I searched the internet to find out what bacteria causes pink eye - the three examples above - then I searched each bacteria individually to find out if they were sexual or asexual.
