Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
All of the offspring of an organism have the same genetic material, which is identical to the parent organism?
A
makes its own food
B
goes away
C
live in a marine habitat
D
reproduces asexually
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -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. Hence, the offspring are genetically identical to themselves and their parents.

Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual reproduction generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic information to produce unique offspring.

Detailed explanation-4: -Because these cells never undergo the gene-jumbling process of meiosis, offspring produced this way are clones of their parent, genetically identical. This form of parthenogenesis is more common in plants.

Detailed explanation-5: -Genetic information is passed from one generation to another. Sexually reproduced offspring are never identical to their parents. Many species, of animals and plants, including humans reproduce sexually.
