Detailed explanation-1: -Most protists are unicellular, microscopic organisms, but a few are complex and multicellular. These are the most diverse (different) organisms according to life cycles, since they reproduce asexually and sexually.

Detailed explanation-2: -Animals that reproduce asexually include planarians, many annelid worms including polychaetes and some oligochaetes, turbellarians and sea stars. Many fungi and plants reproduce asexually.

Detailed explanation-3: -In protists, asexual reproduction can occur in the following ways: Binary fission: It is the division of the parent body into two equal daughter individuals by mitosis. Examples: Amoeba, Euglena and Paramecium. Multiple fission: It is division of the parent organism into several daughter individuals.

Detailed explanation-4: -The typical mode of reproduction in most of the major protistan taxa is asexual binary fission.
