Technically, it would create an identical copy of the parent cell, but with the answers you gave me, I would have to say the first response. Sexual reproduction provides half the genetic information, a half from one parent and a half from the other.
Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction, which involves one parent and gives offspring that are genetically similar to each other and to their parents. It does not involve the fusion of male and female gamete.
It allows the plant to reproduce quickly, as a result of that the parent plant is compete-ting with their offspring for the same nutrient, sunlight, and space.
One thing that a scientist might ask about the movement of carbon dioxide through the whale and its surrounding is “how did the whale get the carbon dioxide?”. Another thing that a scientistmay ask about this is “how does the carbon dioxide affect the ecosystem?”
