What is the name of the process of asexual reproduction used by cells?

Answer 1

Binary fission is the process of creating one identical copy of a parent and is the most common example of asexual reproduction in protists.

In the instances when they reproduce sexually, unsually under stress, it is called conjugation. In this process two parent protists fuse to exchange genetic information and thus create a protist that will be released upon the death of the parent.

Answer 2

mitosis

budding

either of the two

they're not both the same though

Answer 3

Spore formation

Main article: Sporogenesis

Many multicellular organisms form spores during their biological life cycle in a process called sporogenesis. Exceptions are animals and some protists, who undergo gametic meiosis immediately followed by fertilization. Plants and many algae on the other hand undergo sporic meiosis where meiosis leads to the formation of haploid spores rather than gametes. These spores grow into multicellular individuals (called gametophytes in the case of plants) without a fertilization event. These haploid individuals give rise to gametes through mitosis. Meiosis and gamete formation therefore occur in separate generations or "phases" of the life cycle, referred to as alternation of generations. Since sexual reproduction is often more narrowly defined as the fusion of gametes (fertilization), spore formation in plant sporophytes and algae might be considered a form of asexual reproduction (agamogenesis) despite being the result of meiosis and undergoing a reduction in ploidy. However, both events (spore formation and fertilization) are necessary to complete sexual reproduction in the plant life cycle.

Fungi and some algae can also utilize true asexual spore formation, which involves mitosis giving rise to reproductive cells called mitospores that develop into a new organism after dispersal. This method of reproduction is found for example in conidial fungi and the red alga Polysiphonia, and involves sporogenesis without meiosis. Thus the chromosome number of the spore cell is the same as that of the parent producing the spores. However, mitotic sporogenesis is an exception and most spores, such as those of plants, most Basidiomycota, and many algae, are produced by meiosis.

Answer 4

Answer 5

The form of asexual reproduction that is used by cells is called mitosis. In the process of mitosis, the cell duplicates into two genetically identical daughter cells.

Answer 6

Bacteria divide asexually in a method called binary fission.

Answer 7

Mitosis is the process of asexual reproduction that cells use.

Answer 8

One form of asexual reproduction is budding, where the young organism simply forms as a bud on the parent and then breaks off.

Answer 9

binary fission
