Summary Introduction
Introduction: Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which offspring are produced without the union of egg and sperm. Thus, the offspring contain genes from one parent only, that is, from which they have been produced. An individual can reproduce asexually by fragmentation, fission, budding, and parthenogenesis.
