Question

asexual reproduction____. see concept 13.1 (page)
view available hint(s)
requires both meiosis and mitosis
is limited to plants
is limited to single - cell organisms
produces offspring genetically identical to the parent
leads to a loss of genetic material

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction involves only mitosis (cell division that produces genetically identical cells). Meiosis is for sexual reproduction (producing gametes with half the genetic material). Asexual reproduction is not limited to plants (e.g., some animals like hydra reproduce asexually) or single - cell organisms (e.g., some multicellular plants). And it does not lead to a loss of genetic material as the offspring inherit the full set of genetic material from the parent. The key characteristic of asexual reproduction is that the offspring are genetically identical (clones) to the parent.

Answer:

produces offspring genetically identical to the parent
