Yes. This is the process of asexual reproduction. Two examples are: when a starfish has one of it's points removed, cut off, or otherwise, un-attached, the dismembered point will then grow into a completely new starfish of the same species with the exact same D.N.A and genetic material as the parent starfish, because asexual reproduction passes the exact same genes off to the newborn. As opposed to sexual reproduction, like with humans. When we have a child, the genes are taken from half of one parent and half of the other to leave the actual genes up to chance, working from those that have come from the parent. My other example is that, once a bacterial organism has reached the stage at which to reproduce, the newborn will break off of the parent cell, in the famous process of multiplication among bacteria.

ProfessorYes, some organisms can grow from a single cell or part of the parent organism through asexual reproduction. This process allows for the growth of new individuals that are genetically identical to the parent. Examples include plants propagating through stem cuttings or some animals regenerating from a severed body part.

A whole new organism can grow from just a piece of the parent in animals that have the ability to?
This process is called regeneration, where an entirely new organism can develop from a fragment of the parent organism. Some animals that have this ability include certain species of starfish, planarians, and some species of lizards. Regeneration involves the growth of new tissues and organs to replace those that have been lost or damaged.
What are 3 parts of asexual reproduction?
Binary fission: division of a single-celled organism into two identical daughter cells. Budding: new individuals developed as outgrowths from the parent organism. Spore formation: specialized reproductive cells that can grow into new organisms under favorable conditions.
What is process of budding is described by?
Budding is a form of asexual reproduction where a new organism develops as an outgrowth from the parent organism. The offspring produced through budding is genetically identical to the parent organism. The process involves the formation of a small bud on the parent organism, which eventually detaches and grows into a new independent organism.
What is the type of sexual reproduction in which an outgrowth from the parent organism forms a new organism?
Fission
What form of asexual reproduction is budding?
Budding is a form of asexual reproduction where a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud on the parent organism. The new organism is genetically identical to the parent.
