No, sexual reproduction does not produce exact copies. Sexual reproduction is the combination of two different genetic codes, creating a completely unique life form. Asexual reproduction does produce exact copies.

∙ 11y agoyes because of the genes and when they reproduce some come out just like the parent animals.
Not always, for example during sexual reproduction meiosis results into recombination of genes by crossing over and on an average 50% gametes are heterozygous leading to 50% individuals as recombinants.
Vegetative or asexual reproduction in plants may produce exact copies unless not altered by heritable mutations.

∙ 8y agoNo, unless the organism is a hermaphrodite (i.g. has both male and female reproductive parts). This is somewhat common in plants but practically nonexistent in animals.

Why do offspring produce by sexual reproduction show variation from their 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
Type of reproduction in various organisms?
There are two types of reproduction in organic lifeforms: sexual and asexual. Animals undergo sexual reproduction, which assumes two organisms procreating to produce an offspring of shared genetic material.Asexual reproduction, aka fission, spore formation, regeneration, and vegetative reproduction, produces an offspring genetically identical to its single parent -- it's also called "budding" or "sporing."Sexual reproduction produces offspring that is new and unique from the parent organisms -- as it is a combination (not a clone) of the parent genetics.Hope that helps.
What are the offspring of sexual reproduction related to their parent?
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.
What cellular process did plants undergo if they were clones?
Clones are offspring that are genetically identical to their parents and are produced through asexual reproduction, as opposed to sexual reproduction which produces a genetically different offspring.
What is the significance of this second cell division to sexual reproduction?
It ensures that offspring develop from cells that are identical to the parent cell.
Why is the offspring not identical to parent in asexual reproduction?
The offspring is not identical to parent in sexual reproduction because sexual reproduction produces an offspring that is genetically different from the parents. ---- The answer above is actually incorrect. The offspring is identical genetically to the parent because mitosis produces cells genetically identical to the parent cell or cells. But the offspring itself is not identical.
Does NOT results in an offspring identical to the parent?
sexual reproduction
Why do offspring produce by sexual reproduction show variation from their 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
How is sexual reproduction in plants different from sexual reproduction in mammals?
plants are a-sexual reproduction meaning that only one parent is need to make offspring and the offspring is identical to the parent. sexual reproduction is in mammals where two parents are needed to create offspring.
Why does sexual reproduction provide more opportunities for genetic variation than sexual reproduction?
In sexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to either parent.
How many parents are needed to produce offspring by sexual reproduction?
Generally, in sexual reproduction, two parents make offspring.
How sexual reproduction produce in indentical offspring?
its in the genes
Do sexual and asexual reproduction compare?
Asexual: the offspring has a single parent.Sexual: the offspring has two parents (combining some chromosomes from each parent). In asexual reproduction, as long as there are no mutations, the offspring are identical to the parents; in sexual reproduction, they are not.
What can sexual reproduction produce?
...Babies!Sexual reproduction produces an offspring that has a mixture of genes from both parents.
Describes reproduction in which the sex cells from two parents unite the produce offspring?
sexual. sexual reproduction.
How do fungi produce offspring that are not identical?
Surprisingly, fungi can actually undergo sexual reproduction, despite asexual reproduction being a major feature. It's different from most sexual reproduction in how it plays out, however. Hyphae are created, rather than sperm and eggs.
What are the differencess between asexual and sexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction occurs with only one parent and produces identical offspring. Sexual reproduction requires two parents and produces genetically different offspring.
