Repeatedly Self-fertilized plants are homozygous that is why they are identical to the parents. They are not hybrids. Hybrids are essentially heterozygous due to cross fertilization.
Clones are offspring that are genetically identical to their parents and are produced through asexual reproduction, as opposed to sexual reproduction which produces a genetically different offspring.
Vegetative reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction in plants
One parent produces offspring that are exact copies of the parent.
it is called chlorobiastic which means the offspring looks exactly like its parent.
The offspring shows variation because sexual reproduction means that there were two gametes involved (one maternal, one paternal). This means that the offspring has a new genotype, different from the parents, made up of 50% maternal genes and 50% paternal genes.
The offspring is not identical to parent in sexual reproduction because sexual reproduction produces an offspring that is genetically different from the parents. ---- The answer above is actually incorrect. The offspring is identical genetically to the parent because mitosis produces cells genetically identical to the parent cell or cells. But the offspring itself is not identical.
This is called "asexual reproduction".
In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
In asexual reproduction, one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis.
Only organisms reproducing by the assexual process of cloning.
This is called "asexual reproduction".
Genetically identical to the parent cell (unless of course there have been mutations)
Asexual production is when there is one parent that produces offspring that are identical to the parent. Basically a copy of the parents DNA.
Asexual reproduction occurs with only one parent and produces identical offspring. Sexual reproduction requires two parents and produces genetically different offspring.
A type of reproduction that involves only one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.
Clones are offspring that are genetically identical to their parents and are produced through asexual reproduction, as opposed to sexual reproduction which produces a genetically different offspring.
