Detailed explanation-1: -Budding is an asexual reproduction method in which a new organism develops from a bud of an existing organism. Until the new organism matures, it remains attached to the parent organism. Hydra and yeast, for example, reproduce by budding.

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 may lead to the production of a completely new adult that forms away from the original body or may remain attached to the original body. Observed in invertebrates and some vertebrates, parthenogenesis produce offspring that may be either haploid or diploid.

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, in biology, a form of asexual reproduction in which a new individual develops from some generative anatomical point of the parent organism.
