i believe its c. produce identical offspring...
What could be said is that the offspring will not be identical, genetically or regarding appearance; there will be variation between offspring and their sexually reproducing parents.
In sexual reproduction, there are tow parents so there is a mixture in genes. In asexual reproduction, there is one parent so looks identical to that parent
Asexual reproduction decreases genetic variation which is the raw material on which natural selection operates. This is because asexual reproduction produces identical offspring to the parent.
Asexual
The offspring shows variation because sexual reproduction means that there were two gametes involved (one maternal, one paternal). This means that the offspring has a new genotype, different from the parents, made up of 50% maternal genes and 50% paternal genes.
In sexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to either parent.
Sexual reproduction causes most variation in organisms. This is because genes get mixed up in the process whereas in asexual reproduction the offspring is genetically identical to the parent.

Asexual production is when there is one parent that produces offspring that are identical to the parent. Basically a copy of the parents DNA.

Asexual reproduction results in offspring which are genetically the same as the parent organism (not counting a rare mutation). Sexual reproduction produces a random mixture of the genetics derived from both parents.In sexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to either parent.

inherited variation
Sexual reproduction promotes variation.
Sexual reproduction leads to variety in offspring.
