1. | Budding process is defined as the process in which new organism forms from outgrowths of existing ones. | Fragmentation process is defined as the process in which breaking of organisms body takes place and converts into several pieces where few or all develops into complete adults. |
2. | Budding is a type of asexual reproduction where a new organism develops from the bud. | Fragmentation is a type of asexual reproduction where a parent organism breaks off into pieces which subsequently regenerate. |
3. | Inthe budding process, production of single daughter cell takes place. | In the fragmentation process, production of several daughter organisms take place. |
4. | Budding process takes part in both unicellular and multicellular organisms. | Fragmentation process takes part in multicellular organisms. |
5. | The organisms in which budding process takes place are amoeba, sea anemone and yeast etc. | The organisms in which fragmentation process takes place are fungi, jellyfish, starfish, planaria and lichens etc. |
6. | In the budding process, daughter cell undergoes cell growth. | In the fragmentation process, daughter organism undergo regeneration. |
