A clone is
A
recombinant DNA
B
a transgenic organism
C
plasmid
D
genetically identical
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Monozygotic (identical) twins are natural clones. Clones contain identical sets of genetic material in the nucleus-the compartment that contains the chromosomes-of every cell in their bodies. Thus, cells from two clones have the same DNA and the same genes in their nuclei.

Detailed explanation-2: -Identical twins have the same DNA as each other, but different from their parents. A clone, however, only has one parent and has exactly the same DNA as that parent.

Detailed explanation-3: -A clone refers to the offspring of an organism which is formed through asexual reproduction. Since they possess exact copies of the DNA from their parent, so clones exhibit remarkable similarity. Suggest Corrections. Video Solution. EXEMP-Grade 10-Biology-How do Organisms Reproduce?-
