Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] When offspring is produced by a single pare with or without the involvement of gamete formation, the reproduction is called asexual.
As a result, the offspring that are produced are not only similar to one another but are also exact copies of their parent.
Only mitotic division occurs in asexual reproduction.
