Question

prokaryotes reproduce asexually
recall: asexual reproduction:
are the offspring identical to each other?
are the offspring identical to the parent?
what may be an exception?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In asexual reproduction of prokaryotes, offspring are produced by a single - parent organism through processes like binary fission. Since there is no genetic recombination from two parents, the offspring are genetically identical to each other and to the parent in most cases. Mutations can be an exception as they can change the genetic material.

Answer:

Are the offspring identical to each other? Yes
Are the offspring identical to the parent? Yes
What may be an exception? Mutations
