LaoIn unicellular organisms, budding involves a parent cell dividing asymmetrically to form a smaller daughter cell that eventually detaches. In multicellular organisms, budding is a form of asexual reproduction where a new individual grows from an outgrowth on the parent organism before detaching.

Are yeasts unicellular or multicellular organisms?
Yeasts are unicellular organisms, meaning they are composed of a single cell. They are a type of fungi and reproduce asexually through budding.
Is asexual reproduction only in unicellular organisms?
No, asexual reproduction can occur in both unicellular and multicellular organisms. In unicellular organisms, it typically involves cell division, while in multicellular organisms, it can involve processes like budding or fragmentation.
Is yeast multi-cellular or unicellular?
Yeasts are unicellular organisms. Some species with yeast forms may become multicellular through the formation of strings with connected budding.
Why fungi and algae both known as unicellular and multicellular?
I'm not sure about algae, but some fungi can become multicellular through budding
How is budding in a yeast cell different from budding in hydra?
Budding in yeast cells results in the formation of a new yeast cell that eventually detaches from the parent cell. In hydra, budding involves the outgrowth of a bud that forms a new individual genetically identical to the parent but remains attached, forming a colony.
