b. the offspring are made up of portions of each of the parent's dna
c. the offspring are genetically related but also genetically distinct
d. the offspring have identical dna

Answer 1

In asexual reproduction, d. the offspring have identical DNA.

Asexual reproduction involves the process of mitosis for cell division. In the process of mitosis, the DNA duplicates and separates into two different cells. The duplicated DNA is genetically identical to the DNA of the mother or parent cell. This type of reproduction is faster than the reproductive method.
