Is an offspring different?
A clone is genetically identical to the parent. Offspring are 'children' that contain a mix of the father and the mothers DNA and so will be genetically different to both of their parents. Offspring from an asexually reproducing organism (i.e bacteria or rotifers) are sometimes referred to as clones as they contain identical DNA to the parent.
The process through which a genetically identical cell or organism is produced is known as what?
coloning
What are organisms of fragments of DNA that are genetically identical to the organism or fragments that they produced from called?
Clones.
What does the offspring of a sexually reproducing organism receives?
One half of each parent's chromosomes, and genetic variation, as opposed to those that reproduce asexually - the cells just split, so each generation afterward is genetically identical to the parent.
In asexual reproduction are offspring identical to their parent?
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.
Is an organism that is genetically identical to the organism from which it was produced is?
A clone.
An organism that is genetically identical to the organism from which it was produced?
hybridization
Would you predict that another pair of students in your class would have an offspring genetically identical to yours?
A gene is a molecule unit of heredity of a living organism
What is an organism that is genetically identical tho the organism from which it was produced?
You are describing a clone.
What type of reproduction results in offspring that are usually genetically identical to previous and explain why?
Genetically identical offspring are produced by asexual reproduction, also known as cloning. In asexual reproduction, the parent organism simply replicates its own genetics. This is in contrast to sexual reproduction in which two parent organisms combine their genetics.

What is the process of creating a genetically identical copy of an organism?
Cloning
Why is DNA replication important to the growth and development of a multi cellular organism?
DNA replication is important to the growth and development of a multi-cellular organism because it passes on the genetic information. When DNA replicates itself, it produces a new copy of an organisms genetic information.
What do the offspring of asexual reproduction look like?
The offspring of something that went through asexual reproduction should look exactly like the parent.
A clone is an organism that is?
genetically identical to another organism. but it has no family. that is way it is illegal to clone humans.
The fact that an organism's offspring are not identical is known as?
inherited variation
The process through which a genetically identical cell or organism is produced is known as what?
coloning
