Answer from: darlenepitre

The correct answer is asexual reproduction.

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which only one individual is involved and offspring are exact copy or identical to parent. In asexual reproduction new individuals are produced without the fusion of gametes, thus it produces offspring rapidly which helps in producing lots of offspring in short duration. Therefore, asexual reproduction is easy and fast process of reproduction without genetic variation.

Answer from: shartman22

Asexual reproduction is the process by which multiple numbers of identical clones or offspring can be produced by the single parent.

Further Explanation:

Reproduction is the process by which the living organisms produce their offspring. It can be sexual and asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction is the process by which the genetic material of both the parents fuses together to produce offspring. Asexual reproduction is the process by which the genetically identical offspring is produced by the single parent.

Prokaryotes such as bacteria undergo asexual reproduction because it requires a single parent. The single organism can produce maximum number of offspring. It is an effective means of reproduction because are identical clonesare produced that can easily adapt to the environment. It can occur in a number of ways such as binary fission, budding, and fragmentation, etc. Binary fission is the process by which an organism split into two by the process called mitosis. Budding is the process that occurs by the outgrowth of the part of the cell. The outgrowth part detaches itself after the complete growth. Fragmentation is the regeneration process.
