Explanation:

It is known that nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge whereas neutrons have no charge.

Therefore, electrons closer to the nucleus are strongly held due to the force of attraction between opposite charges of protons and electrons.

So, as the electrons go far away from the nucleus then force of attraction between the nucleus and electrons decreases.

As a result, it becomes easier to remove valence electrons of an atom. Thus, they can be removed by friction.

Complete each statement to identify the form of asexual reproduction.
Mrrafil [7]

Spore formation is a form of asexual reproduction used by mushrooms and molds.

During  budding, the offspring grows from the body of the parent.

Fragmentation is a form of asexual reproduction that must be followed by regeneration.

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction is the type of reproduction where the gamete formation and fusion have no relevance or existence. It functions on the process of somatic cell division via mitosis and the offsprings are identical to their parents.

The spore formation occurs in fungi through sporangia, bursting open to shed spores, forming into a new young ones. Budding occurs out as an outgrowth of the parent and attains maturity and separates. Fragmentation is the process where the parents fall apart into pieces and regeneration follows.
