AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct option is, ‘False’.

Detailed explanation-2: -Identical twins are a form of asexual reproduction. The fertilizing of the egg is sexual reproduction (we’ll talk about that in a second). Once the embryo forms it splits in half creating two identical embryos. This split is asexual reproduction.

Detailed explanation-3: -The given statement is false. Asexual reproduction is seen in prokaryotes and some eukaryotes in the form of budding, binary fission, and so on. Asexual reproduction results in an exact copy of the parent organism, and the new cell is formed from a part or cleavage of the parent cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Reproduction may be asexual when one individual produces genetically identical offspring, or sexual when the genetic material from two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring. Asexual reproduction occurs through fission, budding, and fragmentation.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
