In budding, organisms reproduce by having new individuals split off from existing ones, which results in genetically identical parent and daughter organisms. The bud may stay attached or break free from the parent. Eukaryotic organisms, such as the single cell yeast and multicellular hydra, undergo budding
Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent, whereas sexual reproduction produces a similar, but genetically unique offspring. In sexual reproduction, meiosis produces haploid gametes that fuse during fertilization to produce a diploid zygote
Reptiles have dry, tough skin covered in scales, Reptiles breathe using lungs. Reptiles’ kidneys concentrate urine. Young reptiles develop inside an amniotic egg.
