Question: 1 / 400

What type of reproduction occurs in organisms that produce new organisms asexually?

Multiply

Sexual

Hybrid

Clonal

Individuals who rely on asexual reproduction will produce offspring that are genetically identical to the parent organism. This type of reproduction is known as "clonal" reproduction. The other options, multiply, sexual, and hybrid, do not accurately describe the type of reproduction that occurs in asexually reproducing organisms. "Multiply" is a general term that could apply to any type of reproduction. "Sexual" reproduction involves two individuals contributing genetic material to create a unique offspring. "Hybrid" reproduction refers to individuals of different species producing offspring. Therefore, these options are incorrect in the context of asexual reproduction, which involves a single individual producing genetically identical offspring.
