Bermuda Grass

Spreads through stolons or runners.

Roses

Growth from cuttings leads to new plants.

Vegetative Reproduction

New individuals formed without seeds or spores.

Fission

Parent cell splits into two identical daughter cells.

Fragmentation

Parent organism breaks into fragments, each developing into a new organism.

Regeneration

Regrowth of lost body parts, often with fragmentation.

Budding

Parent cell forms a bud that develops into a new organism.

AGAMOGENESIS

Any form of reproduction that does not involve a male gamete.
