Asexual Reproduction is the process of reproduction in Bacterias and some Prokaryotes. This is actually the process of mitosis which is a cell replication process that identically replicates the DNA material found in the cytoplasm (a.k.a. cytosol.) Given that, asexual reproduction produces genetically identical DNA materials (which hold that genes that are responsible for trait expression)
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless a mutation occurs. Mutation is a process wherein the genetic material of an organism is altered.
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.
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.
Asexual production is when there is one parent that produces offspring that are identical to the parent. Basically a copy of the parents DNA.
Offspring are genetically identical to their parents.
In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
This is called "asexual reproduction".
Asexual reproduction results in offspring with an identical genetic makeup as the parent cell which allows them to be called clones. In sexual reproduction genes from both parents combine resulting in offspring with different genetic make ups.
Mitosis
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.
This is called "asexual reproduction".
There are no genetics
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless a mutation occurs. Mutation is a process wherein the genetic material of an organism is altered.
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.
