  2. Gemmule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemmule

    Asexual reproduction in sponges occurs via budding, either by external or internal buds. The internal buds are called gemmules. The internal buds are called gemmules. Only endogenous types of buds develop into new sponges.

  3. 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.

  4. Apicomplexan life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apicomplexan_life_cycle

    It penetrates epithelial cells lining the midgut of mosquitoes to form a thick-walled structure known as an oocyst under the mosquito's outer gut lining. [11] Ookinetes are motile and they move by gliding. A trophozoite (G. trophē, nourishment + zōon, animal) is the activated, intracellular feeding stage in the apicomplexan life cycle. After ...

  5. 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.

  6. Yeast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeast

    In 1680, Dutch naturalist Anton van Leeuwenhoek first microscopically observed yeast, but at the time did not consider them to be living organisms, but rather globular structures [16] as researchers were doubtful whether yeasts were algae or fungi. [17] Theodor Schwann recognized them as fungi in 1837. [18] [19]

  7. Planctomycetota - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planctomycetota

    Most Planctomycetota divide by binary fission, mainly species of the class Phycisphaerae. In contrast, species of the class Planctomycetia divide by budding. [5] [12] [13] The mechanisms involved in budding have been described extensively for yeast cells. However, bacterial budding observed in Planctomycetota is still poorly understood. [15]

  8. Lipid bilayer mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipid_bilayer_mechanics

    Lipid bilayer budding is a commonplace phenomenon in living cells and relates to the transport of metabolites in the form of vesicles. During this process, a lipid bilayer is subject to internal hydrostatic stresses, in combination with strain restrictions along a bilayer surface, this can lead to elongation of areas of the lipid bilayer by ...

  9. Microvesicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microvesicle

    Microvesicle budding takes place at unique locations on the cell membrane that are enriched with specific lipids and proteins reflecting their cellular origin. At these locations, proteins , lipids , and nucleic acids are selectively incorporated into microvesicles and released into the surrounding environment.
