Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Where does an off spring get its traits in asexual reproduction?
A
From both parents
B
From only one parent
C
From neither parent
D
There are no traits handed down
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -1. In surrogacy, the product has the traits of only one parent whereas cloning ensures the traits of both the parents are present. 2. The process of cloning is asexual reproduction and surrogacy involves sexual reproduction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual reproduction Only one parent is required, unlike sexual reproduction which needs two parents. Since there is only one parent, there is no fusion of gametes and no mixing of genetic information. As a result, the offspring are genetically identical to the parent and to each other.

Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual reproduction, the simplest and most primitive method of reproduction, involves a single parent and produces a clone, an organism that is genetically identical to the parent. Haploid gametes are not involved in asexual reproduction. A parent passes all of its genetic material to the next generation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual reproduction generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic information to produce unique offspring. Sexual and asexual reproduction have advantages and disadvantages-which is why some organisms do both!
