(This is very late o-o)

Correct answer: A. Offspring are genetically identical to the parent.

Answer:

The correct answer would be A. Offspring are genetically identical to the parent.

Asexual reproduction refers to the type of reproduction in which only a single parent is involved.

It does not involve the formation and fusion of gametes.

Consequently, the offspring produced contain genetic material identical to their parent cell or organism due to which offspring produced through asexual reproduction are often termed as a clone.

Different types of asexual reproduction are fission, fragmentation, budding et cetera.
