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)

What are the key differences between sexual and asexual reproduction?

Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes from two parents, resulting in genetic variation in offspring. Asexual reproduction does not involve gametes and produces genetically identical offspring.


What are the two types of reproduction define each?

The two types of reproduction are sexual and asexual. Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes from two parents to produce offspring with genetic variation. Asexual reproduction involves the production of offspring from a single parent without the fusion of gametes, resulting in genetically identical offspring.


Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless what occurs?

Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless mutation or genetic recombination occurs, introducing variation among the offspring.


What are the key differences between sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction in terms of genetic diversity and offspring variation?

In sexual reproduction, offspring inherit genetic material from two parents, leading to greater genetic diversity and variation among offspring. In asexual reproduction, offspring are genetically identical to the parent, resulting in less genetic diversity and variation.

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

Mitosis


What is a clone Why do offspring's formed by asexual reproduction exhibit remarkable similarity?

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.


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.


Do sexual and asexual reproduction compare?

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.


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

This is called "asexual reproduction".
