  2. Budding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budding

    In hydra, a bud develops as an outgrowth due to repeated cell division at one specific site. These buds develop into tiny individuals and, when fully mature, detach from the parent body and become new independent individuals. Internal budding or endodyogeny is a process of asexual reproduction, favored by parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii. It ...

    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.

  6. Reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproduction

    Asexual reproduction is a process by which organisms create genetically similar or identical copies of themselves without the contribution of genetic material from another organism. Bacteria divide asexually via binary fission ; viruses take control of host cells to produce more viruses; Hydras ( invertebrates of the order Hydroidea ) and ...

  7. Asexual reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asexual_reproduction

    Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that does not involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes. The offspring that arise by asexual reproduction from either unicellular or multicellular organisms inherit the full set of genes of their single parent and thus the newly created individual is genetically and ...

  8. Because it can reproduce asexually (though it can multiply sexually as well) and can be raised easily in laboratory conditions, N. vectensis has quickly become the go-to species for studying the ...

    Many sessile animals, including sponges, corals and hydra, are capable of asexual reproduction in situ by the process of budding.Sessile organisms such as barnacles and tunicates need some mechanism to move their young into new territory.
