A form of reproduction that does not involve meiosis, ploidy reduction or fertilization, and the offspring is a clone of the parent organism;because of no exchange of genetic material.

In biology, fission is the subdivision of a cell into two or more parts and the regeneration of those parts into separate cells. Binary fission produces two separate cells, populations, species, etc., whereas multiple fission produces more than two cells,

the disease caused by an uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a part of the body.

The cell cycle, or cell-division cycle, is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division

an organism or cell, or group of organisms or cells, produced asexually

the cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.

A form of asexual reproduction where a parent organism breaks into fragments, each capable of growing independently into a new organism.

the resting phase between successive mitotic divisions of a cell, or between the first and second divisions of meiosis.

a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth.

the action of copying or reproducing something.

In cell biology, spindle apparatus refers to the subcellular structure that segregates chromosomes between daughter cells during cell division. It is also referred to as the mitotic spindle during mitosis or the meiotic spindle

a minute, typically one-celled, reproductive unit capable of giving rise to a new individual without sexual fusion, characteristic of lower plants, fungi, and protozoans.

an undifferentiated cell of a multicellular organism that is capable of giving rise to indefinitely more cells of the same type, and from which certain other kinds of cell arise by differentiation.

Vegetative reproduction

Vegetative reproduction is a form of asexual reproduction in plants. It is a process by which new individuals arise without production of seeds or spores.
