Answer 1

Asexual reproduction involves only one parent and the offspring is identical to the parent. An example of an organism that reproduces asexually is Archaea or bacteria. Sexual reproduction involves two parents and the offspring's genes are equally contributed by each parent. An example of organisms that reproduce sexually are some land mammals. The chromosomes of a parent and offspring in asexual reproduction are identical and there is no difference in the chromosomes.
