asexually
Asexually refers to a type of reproduction that does not involve a combination of sperm and egg cells to create a new individual. Instead, an individual organism reproduces by itself, resulting in offspring with identical genetic information. Such type of reproduction is common in many single-celled organisms and some multicellular organisms.
