First, nothing in science is always. In the case of asexual reproduction Such as binary fission or mitosis mutations is always a possibility. In the case of certain microbes, plasmids containing genetic material can be absent or more prevalent in reproduced copies of itself. But, for the most part, under normal circumstances, asexually reproduced organisms are usually identical clones. Matt Somar- Department of Biology University of Central Florida.

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.


What is a reproduction in which a single parent produces offspring's that are identical to the parent?

This is called "asexual reproduction".


What type of reproductive occurs when animals produce clone offspring?

asexual


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


What is an reproduction in which a single parent produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent?

This is called "asexual reproduction".


Why is the offspring of asexual reproduction identical to the parent cell?

Mitosis


Which one involves gametes sexual reproduction or a sexual reproduction?

Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes from two parent organisms to produce offspring with genetic variation. Asexual reproduction does not involve the fusion of gametes; instead, offspring are produced from a single parent organism and are genetically identical to the parent.


Asexual reproduction of a diploid organism would a.be impossible b.involve meiosis c.produce identical offspring d.show variation among sibling offspring e.invlove spores produced by meiosis?

c. produce identical offspring. Asexual reproduction involves the creation of new individuals without the need for gametes or fertilization, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent organism.


The process in which a single plant produces many offspring genetically identical to itself is called?

The process you are referring to is called "asexual reproduction." In this type of reproduction, a single parent plant can produce many offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. This is common in certain plants like strawberries and potatoes.


Why is offspring produced by asexual reproduction identical to the parent that produced them?

There are no genetics


Is asexual reproduction is?

In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
