Solution

Yeast is a unicellular organism which reproduces asexually by budding. The process starts with outgrowth initiation in the parent cell which further grows into a bulb-like structure called bud. From this bud, another bud arises and eventually forms a chain of buds. These buds then gradually grown and after they are completely mature, the buds get detached from the parent cell and form new yeast individuals.
