The production of genetically identical copies of organisms by asexual reproduction is called:

Correct answer: D. Cloning

  • A. Genetic engineering
  • B. Integrated disease management
  • C. Hydroponic culture technique
  • D. Cloning

Explanation

The correct answer is Cloning. Cloning is a form of asexual reproduction that results in the creation of an organism genetically identical to the original. Unlike genetic engineering, which modifies genes, or hydroponics, which is a cultivation method, cloning naturally replicates an organism's genetic material. Integrated disease management is unrelated to reproduction.
