Detailed explanation-1: -budding, in biology, a form of asexual reproduction in which a new individual develops from some generative anatomical point of the parent organism. In some species buds may be produced from almost any point of the body, but in many cases budding is restricted to specialized areas.

Detailed explanation-2: -In budding, a new organism grows by mitosis and cell division on the body of its parent. Budding produces offspring genetically identical to its parent.

Detailed explanation-3: -Budding is a form of asexual reproduction that results from the outgrowth of a part of the body leading to a separation of the “bud” from the original organism and the formation of two individuals, one smaller than the other. Budding occurs commonly in some invertebrate animals such as hydras and corals.

Detailed explanation-4: -A new individual is formed by a bud growing from the body of the “parent”. Since no gametes are involved in the process, budding is a form of asexual reproduction and the “offspring” is a clone of the parent. Rather than sex cells, somatic cells are involved.

Detailed explanation-5: -Budding is a type of asexual reproduction, which is most commonly associated in both multicellular and unicellular organisms. Bacteria, yeast, corals, flatworms, Jellyfish and sea anemones are some animal species which reproduce through budding.
