Detailed explanation-1: -Both haploid and diploid yeast cells can reproduce asexually by budding, in which a small bud emerges from the mother cell, enlarges until reaching a certain size, and then separates from the mother cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Yeast cells divide as rapidly as once every 90 min under optimal laboratory conditions, through a process of budding in which smaller daughter cells pinch, or bud, off the mother cell (see Figure 1). The common name “budding yeast” derives from this notable feature of cell division and distinguishes S.

Detailed explanation-3: -Budding in yeast: Budding is a type of asexual reproduction seen in yeast, hydra etc. It is the process of development of a smaller bud from an adult organism directly without involvement of any gametes. A soft zone appears in the cell wall of vegetative cells. Small buds will bulge out from this zone.

Detailed explanation-4: -Yeast is a single-celled organism. The small bulb-like projection coming out from the yeast cell is called a bud. The bud gradually grows and gets detached from the parent cell and forms a new yeast cell. The new yeast cell grows, matures and produces more yeast cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Yeast is a single-celled organism that reproduces mostly by budding. In yeast, asexual reproduction occurs through budding; however, certain yeast species also reproduce through binary fission. A bud is a tiny protrusion from the parent cell that pinches off and produces a new individual when it reaches maturity.
