Currently we are learning about asexual reproduction. As a general rule, animals cannot reproduce asexually. However, there are exceptions. Amoebas and other single-celled organisms reproduce asexually, being too small to have gender. Certain larger animals may reproduce asexually through either: parthenogenesis under certain circumstances (that is, reproduction via self-cloning), gynogenesis (via the catalyst of a male nearby which does not actually fertilize the eggs). Here is a video of bacteria reproducing asexually.

it is really interesting looking into how things reproduce. There are so many different ways for something to reproduce. We also looked at how to graft a fruit tree. That is another way of reproducing fruit.
