Question

Individuals of a clone have the

• A. Same behavior.
• B. Same height.
• C. Same genome.
• D. Same number of leaves.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Same genome.

The individual produced by the asexual reproduction are considered as a clone of their own parents and have same genome because of the following reasons:

1) Fusion of gametes does not takes place in asexual reproduction so there is no chance of recombination and variation.

2) The parent cell divides to form daughter cell by mitosis due to which the offspring is genetically identical to the parent.

3) The offspring produced are clones of their parent and have same number of chromosomes.

So, the correct answer is option C.
