Budding
or outgrow
Small growth on surface of parent breaks off, resulting to formation of 2 offsprings
examples are yeast, hydras, jellyfish
process is PMAT (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase)

Fragmentation 
Organisms break into fragments that develop into offspring
examples are coral, sponge, starfish

Offspring develops without fertilization
examples are ants, wasps, bees
