|
Diverse offspring inherits different parts of DNA, making it look similar to its parents and uniform offspring gets DNA from one parents making it look identical
|
|
|
Diverse offspring inherits a little amount of DNA, making it look similar to its parents and uniform offspring inherits a lot of DNA, making it look identical to its parent

Diverse offspring inherits a lot of DNA, making it look similar to its parents and uniform offspring inherits a little amount of DNA, making it look identical to its parent

Detailed explanation-1: -The answer has to do with the fact that each parent actually has two different sets of genes. And that each parent passes only half of their genes to their child. And that the half that gets passed down is random. All of this together ensures that each child ends up with a different, unique set of genes.
Detailed explanation-2: -With sexual reproduction, offspring are genetically unique because they get a mix of genes from mom and dad. In sexual reproduction, the male and female reproductive cells are called gametes, or simply the sperm and egg. Each gamete contains half the number of chromosomes found in other cells of the organism.
Detailed explanation-3: -During sexual reproduction the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring that differ from their parents. The genetic diversity of sexually produced offspring is thought to give species a better chance of surviving in an unpredictable or changing environment.
Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent because the offspring are all clones of the original parent. A single individual can produce offspring asexually and large numbers of offspring can be produced quickly.
