The ability of a cell to divide into two equal daughter cells is called binary fission .
The organism duplicates the genetic material, or deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA), in the binary fission process and then breaks into two parts (cytokinesis), each new organism receiving a single copy of DNA.
Multicellular fragmentation is a type of asexual reproduction in which an organism is divided into fragments.
Multiple fission is the asexual reproduction process, in which many daughter cells are produced from the parent cell instead of 2 daughter cells.
Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which, due to cell division at one particular location, a new organism emerges from an outgrowth or bud.
