Asexual reproduction is when offspring are genetically identical to the parent. Asexual reproduction only requires - and only allows for - one parent. Most of the time, we think of two parents - a male and a female - making an offspring. However, asexual reproduction only uses one parent. In plants, asexual reproduction is called vegetative propagation. Vegetative propagation, like many things, has its advantages and disadvantages.
I. Cell Division . Life is based on the ability of cells to reproduce, or make copies of themselves. This is done by a process called cell division = one cell divides into two cells. For one-celled organisms, cell division = reproduction; each cell division not only produces a new cell, it also produces a new organism (bacteria, protists). For multicellular organisms (like us) cell division allows an organism to grow and develop from a single cell to trillions of cells, and also to repair and replace cells.
