Budding Some cells split via Budding (for example Yeast), resulting in a 'mother' and 'daughter' cell. The offspring organism is smaller than the parent. Budding is also known on a multicellular level; an animal example is the Hydra, which reproduces by budding. The buds grow into fully matured individuals which eventually break away from the parent organism.

Since multicellular organisms, such as hydras and sponges, have only a few diffrent cell types, they are also able to reproduce asexually. Areas of indivigual may undergo repeated mitosis and cell divison and can decelop into an identical organism in a mthod called budding. The hydra and sponge develop an outgrowth or bud.The bud may detatch from the parent and become a new individual or remain attatched. Unicelluar yeast cells also reproduce by budding.
