Question

asexual reproduction differs from sexual reproduction in that

• asexual reproduction produces genetically diverse offspring.
• asexual reproduction utilizes dna from two parents to code for traits in offspring.
• asexual reproduction occurs only in plants.
• asexual reproduction produces offspring containing dna from only one parent.
• asexual reproduction only occurs in animals.

Explanation:

• Asexual reproduction creates genetically identical offspring, not diverse, so the first option is wrong.
• It only uses DNA from a single parent, not two, so the second option is incorrect.
• Asexual reproduction occurs in both plants, animals, and single-celled organisms, so the third and fifth options are wrong.
• The key difference is that asexual reproduction's offspring inherit DNA from just one parent, which matches the fourth option.

Answer:

asexual reproduction produces offspring containing DNA from only one parent.
