Turbellaria flatworms can reproduce asexually primarily through a process called fission, where the organism splits into two or more parts, each of which can regenerate into a complete individual. This method allows for rapid population increases in favorable environments. Some species can also reproduce through fragmentation, where a piece of the body breaks off and develops into a new worm. Asexual reproduction in turbellarians is advantageous for colonizing new habitats quickly.
