Question:

How does asexual reproduction differ from sexual reproduction?

Author: Alana Ray



Answer:

Asexual reproduction differs from sexual reproduction as it only involves one parent and does not involve gametes. Therefore there is no mixing of genetic information so offspring are genetically identical or clones. So asexual reproduction mush happen through mitosis. An example of asexual reproduction is when the kalanchoe plant reproduces by forming tiny buds at the edge of its leaves, that drop off and grow into new clone plants.
