is genetically identical to its parents.

developed from a zygote.

inherited genes from two parents.

Detailed explanation-1: -In asexual reproduction, only a single parent is involved. So, the offspring produced are genetically identical to the parent and to each other as well. Such offspring are called clones.
Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which a single parent produces a new progeny. The new progeny produced are genetically and physically identical to their parents, i.e., they are clones.
Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual reproduction involves one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to each other and to the parent. Sexual reproduction involves two parents and produces offspring that are genetically unique.
Detailed explanation-4: -The statement is false. The daughter cells produced by asexual reproduction are similar to their parent. In contrast, sexual reproduction produces a similar but genetically different offspring. In the process of sexual reproduction, haploid gametes produced by the meiotic division fuses to form a diploid zygote.
