Explain various steps of budding in yeast.
Budding is a form of asexual reproduction usually observed in yeast.
• During this process, a small protrusion appears on the upper portion of the body of the organism.
This bulge is called a bud. • The bud gradually grows in size and forms an individual cell. • From this newly budded cell, another bud appears at the tip. • This process continues and a chain of yeast cells is obtained.
