Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Asexual Reproduction Examples Blackworms or mud worms reproduce through fragmentation. Hydras reproduce through budding. Organisms such as copperheads undergo parthenogenesis. Sugarcane can be grown through vegetative propagation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual reproduction Only one parent is required, unlike sexual reproduction which needs two parents. Since there is only one parent, there is no fusion of gametes and no mixing of genetic information. As a result, the offspring are genetically identical to the parent and to each other.
