A
Meiosis
B
Binary fission
C
Budding
D
Fragmentation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -1) Binary fission: Single parent cell doubles its DNA, then divides into two cells. Usually occurs in bacteria. 2) Budding: Small growth on surface of parent breaks off, resulting in the formation of two individuals.

Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual reproduction relies on a process called mitosis, in which the nucleus of a cell divides to create two new nuclei, each containing an identical copy of DNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -budding, in biology, a form of asexual reproduction in which a new individual develops from some generative anatomical point of the parent organism.
