Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Multiple fission is also referred to as schizogony, which involves multiple rounds of nuclear division followed by cytokinesis, resulting in the formation of multiple daughter cells. Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in which a new individual develops from an outgrowth or bud on the parent organism. Zygotic meiosis is a type of sexual reproduction that occurs in some protists, where meiosis occurs immediately after the formation of a zygote. Syngamy is the process of fusion of two gametes to form a zygote. Intermediary meiosis is not a commonly used term in protist reproduction.
