It is possible for plants that have identical genetic make-up to show differences due to genetic causes of variation such as mutations,meiosis and sexual reproduction and environmental causes of variation such as nutrients,and temperature.

∙ 11y agohmm depending on what plant you are talknig about in especialy..lets see..for a good fact...females have a differency because they have pods near the stem or top of the flower to induce the pollen wich the male plant does not.
Edited answer:
Due to inherent variability
Wiki User

What would you do to grow an identical plant?
Cloning is the best way to grow identical plants. In plants vegetative propagation can also lead to identical plants. You would have to clone a plant in order to grow an identical plant.
When a plant reproduces vegetatively its offspring are?
are genetically identical
Do plant's cells have centrioles?
NO plants do not have centrioles, but have a spindle closely identical to the Animals
Organisms that contain genes from other organisms are called?
A plant that contains a gene or genes from another organism that has been introduced artificially into the plant's genetic makeup is called a transgenetic plant. It is also called genetic engineering.
Which of these statements describes a limitation of the Treaty of Plant Genetic Resources?
It does not address the loss of habitat.
What is the genetic relationship between a plant and its cutting?
they are genetically identical - clones
Self pollinating plant?
Have no genetic means of variation, and must breed pure and identical to the parent.
What is the difference in an animal cells mitochondrion and a plant cells mitochondrion?
There is no difference. Mitochondria are functionally and structurally identical in all eukaryotes.
How does mitosis ensure that a new plant cell is identical to its parents?
Mitosis ensure that a new cell is identical to its parents by their copy of the parent's genome in mitosis. Identical genetic information will result in identical cells.
What is a plant or animal that is an exact duplicate of another?
A genetically-identical organism would be called a clone, although this now has a connotation of an artificially created genetic copy.
What would you do to grow an identical plant?
Cloning is the best way to grow identical plants. In plants vegetative propagation can also lead to identical plants. You would have to clone a plant in order to grow an identical plant.
Disadvantages of budding?
budding does not allow any type of genetic variation. The new generation is naturally genetically identical to the primary one(clone) so as with binary fission there is not as much genetic variation in offspring as occurs with sexual reproduction.
What is the difference between a fruiting body and a vegetative body?
A fruiting body is essentially a plant's ovary and contains seeds. A vegetative body is a root, tuber, rhizome, runner etc. that can often produce another plant, but it is identical to the parent plant,
Are plant Clones always identical?
No not always!
Does the plant cell or the animal cell contain genetic material?
Both animal and plant cells contain genetic material, DNA.
What is the difference between the location of the genetic material in the bacterium and in the cell from the lining of the intestine?
In plant and animal cells the genetic material is located in the water because they both need water to survive and in bacterial cells the genetic material is located in the cytoplasm.
What genetic modified foods?
its a food where the genetic of it have been modified in laboratory to be able to survive differently exemple : you can grow apple where there is not enought rain or sun because the genetic of the plant have been modified by adding other plant genetic.
