In asexual reproduction, the offspring are genetically identical to their parents.

Fragmentation is a type of asexual reproduction in which an organism can split into pieces and grow a new organism.

Vegetative propogation is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new plant grows from the parts of another plant.

Asexual reproduction requires only one parent.

In sexual reproduction, the offspring are genetically distinct from their parents.
