  2. Hydra vulgaris - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra_vulgaris

    Hydra oligactis. This species can reproduce in three ways: sexual reproduction, budding, and indirectly through regeneration. [11] When hydra reproduce sexually, simple testes, ovaries, or both will develop on the bodies of an individual. Sperm released into the environment by the testes enters the egg within the ovary.

  3. Reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproduction

    Bacteria divide asexually via binary fission; viruses take control of host cells to produce more viruses; Hydras (invertebrates of the order Hydroidea) and yeasts are able to reproduce by budding. These organisms often do not possess different sexes, and they are capable of "splitting" themselves into two or more copies of themselves.

  4. Asexual reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asexual_reproduction

    Budding is also known on a multicellular level; an animal example is the hydra, [10] which reproduces by budding. The buds grow into fully matured individuals which eventually break away from the parent organism. Internal budding is a process of asexual reproduction, favoured by parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii.

  5. Search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_algorithm

    Specific applications of search algorithms include: Problems in combinatorial optimization, such as: . The vehicle routing problem, a form of shortest path problem; The knapsack problem: Given a set of items, each with a weight and a value, determine the number of each item to include in a collection so that the total weight is less than or equal to a given limit and the total value is as ...

  6. Hydra (genus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra_(genus)

    Hydra (/ ˈ h aɪ d r ə / HY-drə) is a genus of small freshwater hydrozoans of the phylum Cnidaria.They are native to the temperate and tropical regions. [2] [3] The genus was named by Linnaeus in 1758 after the Hydra, which was the many-headed beast of myth defeated by Heracles, as when the animal has a part severed, it will regenerate much like the mythical hydra's heads.

  7. Mitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

    For example, the hydra reproduces asexually by budding. The cells at the surface of hydra undergo mitosis and form a mass called a bud. Mitosis continues in the cells of the bud and this grows into a new individual. The same division happens during asexual reproduction or vegetative propagation in plants.

  8. Budding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budding

    Budding or blastogenesis is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site. For example, the small bulb-like projection coming out from the yeast cell is known as a bud.

  9. Memetic algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memetic_algorithm

    An EA is a metaheuristic that reproduces the basic principles of biological evolution as a computer algorithm in order to solve challenging optimization or planning tasks, at least approximately. An MA uses one or more suitable heuristics or local search techniques to improve the quality of solutions generated by the EA and to speed up the search.
