A type of asexual reproduction that occurs when an offspring grows from a piece of its parent.
A
regeneration
B
fertilization
C
vegetative reproduction
D
asexual reproduction
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Fragmentation. Fragmentation is another mode of asexual reproduction exhibited by organisms such as spirogyra, planaria etc. The parent body divides into several fragments and each fragment develops into a new organism.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vegetative reproduction is a form of asexual reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant. Vegetative reproduction usually involves structures such as the roots, the stems, and the leaves of plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual reproduction includes fission, budding, fragmentation, and parthenogenesis, while sexual reproduction is achieved through the combination of reproductive cells from two individuals.

Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual reproduction generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic information to produce unique offspring. Sexual and asexual reproduction have advantages and disadvantages-which is why some organisms do both!
