Sexual reproduction leads to variety in offspring.
The trait occurs by mutation.
This is called bicoid mutant phenotype, and is caused by a maternal effect gene which is a gene that, when mutant in the mother, results in a mutant phenotype of the offspring regardless of the offspring's genotype.
If ALL offspring are Aa, The parents are AA and aa.

The least amount of genetic variation among offspring occurs in asexual reproduction, where offspring are produced from a single parent without the fusion of gametes. This results in clones, meaning the offspring are genetically identical to the parent and to each other, barring any mutations. In contrast, sexual reproduction introduces genetic variation through the combination of genes from two parents, leading to diverse offspring.
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless mutation or genetic recombination occurs, introducing variation among the offspring.
Many individuals. Asexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent, while sexual reproduction involves the combination of genetic material from two parents to produce genetically diverse offspring.
During the process of reproduction, new offspring are created through the fusion of genetic material (sperm and egg). This results in the production of genetically diverse individuals that inherit traits from their parents.
sexual reproduction
The trait occurs by mutation.
hen an offspring is produced asexually and looks exactly like the parent.
Budding.
Reproduction that results in offspring that are clones is called asexual reproduction. This process involves a single parent producing genetically identical offspring through processes such as binary fission, budding, or fragmentation.
