I would like to thank my father- Mr. Keyble Williamson and my mother- Mrs. Ann Williamson for their continuous support and encouragement. Also to Mr. Thompson my Agricultural Science teacher for giving me this project so I can be inform more about Asexual Reproduction.
Fore mostly, I would like to thank God Almighty for giving me the knowledge and understanding completing this project.
A form of asexual reproduction in plants, in which multicellular structures become detached from the parent plant and develop into new individuals that are genetically identical to the parent plant. For example, liverworts and mosses form small clumps of tissue (called gemmae) that are dispersed by splashing raindrops to form new plants. Bulbs, corms, offsets, rhizomes, runners, suckers, and tubers are all important means of vegetative reproduction and propagation in cultivated plants.
1. Binary Fusion
The type of division, in which two individuals are formed from a single individual, is called binary fusion. This is the simplest method of asexual reproduction which is found in unicellular organisms. The cells divide into two daughter cells. The daughter cells are morphologically and genetically identical. In this method, the nucleus first divides amitotically into two, which is followed by the division of the cytoplasm. The cell finally splits into two daughter cells. Binary fission occurs under favourable environmental conditions. In plants binary fission can be seen in bacteria, yeast and euglena.
2. Multiple Fission
The type of division, in which many individuals are formed a single individual, is called multiple
