| Within the sporocyst, a special form of asexual reproduction, known as polyembryony, then occurs. |
| In asexual reproduction, eggs develop without fertilization, a process called parthenogenesis. |
| Methods of asexual reproduction include both budding and the formation of gemmules. |
| Both species reproduce by cyclical parthenogenesis, in which phases of asexual reproduction are intermitted by sexual reproduction. |
| Workers at both hatcheries keep the plants healthy and repot the tillers, the product of asexual reproduction, which grow into mature plants. |
| Essentially, type I schizonts are involved in asexual reproduction, whereas type II schizonts are involved in sexual reproduction. |
