Neither, each of the two parents contribute 1/2 of the genetic material.

If each parent can produce 100 genetically distinct gametes how many genetically distinct offspring can two parents produce?

Two parents can produce up to 10,000 genetically distinct offspring when each parent contributes 100 genetically distinct gametes. This is calculated by multiplying the number of unique gametes from each parent (100 x 100 = 10,000).


What is the most important difference between asexual and sexual reproduction?

The key difference is that asexual reproduction involves a single parent, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic material to produce genetically diverse offspring.


How do asexually reproduced organisms genetically compare to their parent?

They are genetically identical. unless mutation plays its role.


When does a parent have a genetically identical offspring?

A parent has a genetically identical offspring when it reproduces asexually, meaning it produces offspring without the involvement of gametes from another parent. This process can occur through methods such as budding, fission, or vegetative reproduction, resulting in clones that share the same genetic material as the parent. In contrast, sexual reproduction typically leads to genetically diverse offspring due to the combination of genes from two parents.


Are gametes produced in meiosis identical to each other but different from parent cell?

No. Each gamete is genetically different from the other gametes and from the parent cell.

Is a clone genetically identical to its parent(s)?

Yes, a clone is genetically identical to its parent(s) because it is created using the genetic material of the parent organism.


Asexual reproduction produces offspring that?

Genetically identical to the parent cell (unless of course there have been mutations)


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

This is called "asexual reproduction".

The production of offspring genetically identical to the parent plant is the result of?

asexual reproduction


What is the definition fro asexual reproduction?

A type of reproduction that involves only one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.


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.
