Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which type of asexual reproduction involves a piece of the parent organism becoming detached then growing and developing into a completely new individual?
A
Budding
B
Gemmules
C
Fragmentation
D
Parthenogenesis
E
Fission with regeneration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Budding. Budding is a form of asexual reproduction that results from the outgrowth of a part of a cell or body region leading to a separation from the original organism into two individuals. Budding occurs commonly in some invertebrate animals such as corals and hydras.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fragmentation is a form of asexual reproduction where a new organism grows from a fragment of the parent. Each fragment develops into a mature, fully grown individual. Fragmentation is seen in many organisms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Regeneration: Echinoderms In this form of asexual reproduction, a new individual develops from a part of another. This typically happens when a part, like an arm, becomes detached from the parent’s body. The separated piece can grow and develop into a completely new individual.

Detailed explanation-4: -binary fission, asexual reproduction by a separation of the body into two new bodies. In the process of binary fission, an organism duplicates its genetic material, or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and then divides into two parts (cytokinesis), with each new organism receiving one copy of DNA.

Detailed explanation-5: -Fission. In fission (or binary fission), a parent separates into two or more individuals of about equal size. This type of reproduction is common among single-celled organisms including bacteria, archaea, and unicellular eukaryotes, such as protists and some fungi. The single cell divides into two daughter cells.
