No. The offspring receive a combination of both parents DNA (roughly half from each parent although the mom contributes more due to mitochondrial DNA). During recombination the DNA of both parents is combined form a unique individual with traits from both the mother and father.

What are the reasons that offspring does not look exactly like you?
Offspring does not look exactly like the parent because in humans, only sexual reproduction is possible, which involves 2 parents which exchange DNA to form offspring with different DNA and genetic information than both parents.
What type of reproduction results in uniform offspring?
hen an offspring is produced asexually and looks exactly like the parent.
What different shapes of a sexual and asexual reproduction in offspring?
asexual offsprings are exactly alike with their parent.they show little variation so little chance for survival during struggles created by naturetheir number is more than sexually reproducing organism
How does DNA in offspring produced by asexual reproduction compare to DNA in offspring produced by sexual reproduction?
If an offspring was produced through asexual reproduction, its genes will be exactly like its parent. This is more or less a clone of the parent. An example of this is a bacterium. If an offspring is produced through sexual reproduction, it will contain genes from both parents. (such as humans)
What do the offspring of asexual reproduction look like?
The offspring of something that went through asexual reproduction should look exactly like the parent.

What is it called when one parent produces offspring that is an exact copy of the parent?
it is called chlorobiastic which means the offspring looks exactly like its parent.
Why does sexual reproduction produce offspring that are not exactly like either of there parents?
The genes passed on by each parent causes a 'mixing' in a way they are expressed. You and your parents do not have exactly the same genes. Your DNA is so unique that it can identify you from every other human.
Is cloning sexual or asexual reproduction?
it is asexual because it only acquires 1 organism and the offspring is exactly like the parent that was cloned
What do the offspring of asexual reproduction look like?
The offspring of something that went through asexual reproduction should look exactly like the parent.
How is sexual and asexual reproduction different in inherited genetic material?
Sexual reproduction is with two parents and takes one sperm and one egg cell to create one embryo. The two parents and the offspring have different genetic information. Asexual reproduction is with one parent and both the parent and the offspring have the same genetic information, duh.
Can an offspring look like just one parent?
because of the chromosomes the parents will give 23 of their chromosomes to the baby born and then that baby has 46 chromosomes in all.this method is called mitosis.
What is the difference between bacterial sex and sexual reproduction in plants and animals?
Bacterial is a plant reproducing itself. sexual is two parents that mate in order to make offspring.
How does the offspring of asexual reproduction differ from the offspring of sexual reproduction?
Offspring from sexual reproduction have combined DNA from each of their parents. They are varied, as in a mixture of both parents. Example: if two bean plants, one tall and one short, sexually reproduce, the genotype will be Tt and offspring will most likely be tall (phenotype). Offspring from asexual reproduction does not vary. It is an exact copy of its parent organism, a clone, if you will. Example: If a short bean plant--a complete bean plant--asexually reproduces, it will have a genotype tt, (phenotype short) offspring that looks identical to it. I'm in 7th grade biology right now, and we learned this in December. Hope I helped!:) BvR
