what type of cell reporduces asexually by budding?
yeast cells
1 of 12
what does budding involve?
it involves mitosis
2 of 12
name the 5 steps of how a yeast cells buds
1. bud forms on the cell surface 2. cell undergo interphase 3. the cell begins mitosis 4. nuclear division is complete the budding cell contains a nucleus thats identical to parent 5. finally bud seperates off

what is the difference between mitosis and meiosis
mitosis forms 2 identical daughter cells. meiosis forms four haploid daughter cells
