Yeast reproduces sexually by producing spores.
Further Explanation:
The asexual reproduction is a major type of reproduction in single-cell organisms like bacteria, protista and archaea. Some fungi and plants also reproduce sexually. In this process, the offspring is produce from one parent and also pass the genetic information from one parent. The offspring is exact copy of parent because there is no genetic variation.
The common methods of asexual reproduction are:
Yeast is an example of eukaryotic organism and can reproduce by sexually and also asexually. In asexual reproduction they divide by the process of budding. It produces a very small bulge on parent cell that increase in full size and makes a bud. The nucleus of the parent cell is dividing into daughter nucleus and passes onto the daughter cell. The bud is detached from mother’s body by making a constriction at the base.
In sexual reproduction, yeast reproduces or dived by producing spores. In this yeast cell undergoes into meiosis and make haploid spores. These cells produce more haploid cell and form diploid cell which is a normal ploidy level of yeast.
