Three ways that protists reproduce

Answer 1

1. Asexual reproduction
2. 1. Splits into nearly equal halves after mitosis
   2. Sometimes daughter cell considerably smaller then grows= budding
   3. Schizogony= cell division preceded by several nuclear divisions so that cytokinesis produces several individuals simultaneously

1. Sexual reproduction
2. 1. Meiosis for production of haploid from diploid = frequent genetic recombination
3. Complex lifestyles

Some protists have a specific lifestyle in which they reproduce through multiple forms through sexual, asexual, or cloning processes.

Answer 2

1. Protists can reproduce asexually through processes like binary fission, where the cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
2. Protists can also reproduce sexually by exchanging genetic material with another individual through processes like conjugation.
3. Some protists can undergo multiple fission, where one cell divides into many daughter cells simultaneously.
