Which animals use budding?
Budding is a type of asexual reproduction where a new organism grows out of the body of an existing one. Budding occurs in a variety of animals, including hydra, tunicates, flatworms, and some corals. In hydra, budding occurs when a small outgrowth forms on the body of the parent and gradually develops into a fully functional individual. In tunicates, budding occurs when a new individual grows out of the body of a colonial organism. In flatworms, budding occurs when a new individual forms from the body of an existing one. In some corals, budding occurs when a new colony grows out of the body of an existing one.
