Baker's yeast is a tiny, single-celled fungus that makes bread dough rise and converts sugars into alcohol. This yeast reproduces by budding. As the small bud grows, it receives a copy of the parent's nucleus. When the bud pinches off, the new cell is smaller than the parent cell but genetically identical.

How does this organism reproduce?

Answer:

it is called budding, a type of as3xual reproduction

Step-by-step explanation:

  • as3xual reproduction is a type of reproduction that produces genetically identical offspring.
  • S3xual reproduction results in children that are genetically distinct from their parents.

Budding is a form of as3xual reproduction in which an organism grows from a bud as a result of cell division at a specific location.

since baker's yeast reproduces by pinching off from another bud (cell division), and the offspring is identical it would be as3xual reproduction.
