Question

Assertion (A): Offsprings produced by asexual reproduction are genetically similar to the parents.
Reason (R): Asexual reproduction involves a single parent.

• A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
• B. Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
• C. (A) is true, but (R) is false.
• D. (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In asexual reproduction, offspring are produced from a single parent without gamete fusion. This results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent, as no genetic recombination occurs.
