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.

Which organisms are reproducing asexually?

There are tons of organisms that reproduce asexually. As for ANIMALS - A lot of species of fish do (some sharks partake in parthenogenesis - a type of asexual reproduction), some species of wasps, whiptail lizards, sea anemones, coral, starfish, snails. All fungi, bacteria, Archaea, Protist and amoebas reproduce asexually. Some plants are capable of reproducing asexually, such as strawberry, onions and potatoes.


Do Zooflagellates reproduce asexually or sexually?

Zooflagellates can reproduce asexually through binary fission where the cell divides into two daughter cells. Some zooflagellates can also reproduce sexually through conjugation, where genetic material is exchanged between two individuals.


How do most fungi reproduce?

Most fungi reproduce through the production of spores. These spores can be dispersed by wind, water, or animals to start new fungal colonies. Fungi can also reproduce sexually by combining genetic material from two different individuals to form a new spore-producing organism.


Organisms that reproduce asexually and sexually?

Organisms that reproduce asexually include bacteria, some plants, and fungi like yeast. Organisms that reproduce sexually include humans, animals, and many plants. Some organisms have the ability to reproduce through both sexual and asexual means, like certain types of jellyfish.


Does ameba reproduce sexually or asexually?

Amebas typically reproduce asexually through a process called binary fission, where the cell splits into two daughter cells. However, under certain conditions, some amebas can also reproduce sexually by exchanging genetic material with another ameba.

Do animals reproduce sexually or asexually?

Animals reproduce sexually, where genetic material from two parents combine to produce offspring. This involves the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg) from two individuals to form a genetically unique offspring.

How does animal reproduces?

Animals either sexually reproduce or asexually reproduce. Animals who sexually reproduce have sex the same way that humans do. Animals that asexually reproduce have sex with themselves. This kind of sex happens inside the body. To learn more, visit Wikipedia.


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.

Can only single-celled organisms reproduce asexually?

NO!!! Multicellular organisms can reproduce asexually too! Some plants and animals reproduce this way, and they are certainly more than one cell!
