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.
False. Sexual reproduction combines genetic information from each of the parents resulting in the offspring inheriting some traits from each of the parents and some traits that are a merging of genetic information resulting in new traits that may not exist in either parent.
Yes, asexual production is making genetic copies of yourself.
yes
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.
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.
Better adapted to the environment due new genetic combinations by crossing over.
the offspring will not be identical to the parent
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.
This is called "asexual reproduction".
sexual reproduction
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
This is called "asexual reproduction".
Mitosis
There are no genetics
In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
One characteristic of asexual reproduction is that there is only one parent. This type of reproduction creates offspring that is completely identical to the one parent.
A type of reproduction that involves only one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.
