The difference is with an asexually produced organism, the organism is created using only one parent. With a sexually produced organism, the organism is produced using two parents

How is DNA different amongst organisms produced from asexual reproductiona and sexual reproduction?
Organisms that reproduce asexually pass on an exact replica of their own DNA to their offspring. Organisms that reproduce sexually pass on a combination of DNA from two parent organisms to their offspring.
Asexual produced offspring are genetically?
identical.
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)
Why is offspring produced by asexual reproduction identical to the parent that produced them?
There are no genetics
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 type of reproduction results in uniform offspring?
hen an offspring is produced asexually and looks exactly like the parent.
Is the term clone applicable to the offspring produced by vegetative reproduction?
yes as it is a type of asexual rep.
What is a form of asexual reproduction in which offsprings are produced?
All asexually reproducing organisms are potentially capable of reproducing, and they don't waste any energy in trying to attract a mate
Why is there great Variation in the offspring produced through sexual reproduction but little or no variation in the offspring produced through asexual reproduction?
In asexual reproduction there is no independent orientation of chromosomes, not crossing over and no random fertilization. Cloning the exact genetic material from organism to progeny is all asexual reproduction is. So, very little chance of anything but mutation, copying errors, are going to happen in asexual reproduction.

Is bacillus sexually or asexually?
asexual
Are armadillos asexual animals?
Armadillos reproduce sexually. They do however produce 4 same sex offspring with each breeding that are all identical.
