Question
which type of reproduction results in offspring that are genetically identical to a parent?
choose 1 answer:
a asexual reproduction
b sexual reproduction
Brief Explanations
Asexual reproduction involves a single parent. The offspring are produced by mitosis (in eukaryotes) or binary fission (in prokaryotes). Since there is no genetic recombination (unlike sexual reproduction where gametes from two parents combine and genetic material is shuffled), the offspring have the same genetic material as the parent.
