| Budding | when a new organism buds off of the original organism and eventual separates itself |
| Fragmentation/Regeneration | the process of breaking the parent into small parts, each of which will grow into a new individual. |
| Sexual reproduction | Two living organisms ( male and female) reproducing a new organism that is not and exact replica of the parents |
| Internal fertilization | When the egg is inside of the mother until birth. |
