Correct answer: D. All of these options are correct
- A. Sporulation
- B. Fission
- C. Apomixis
- D. All of these options are correct
Explanation
Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves only one parent, and the offspring produced are genetically identical to the parent. This process does not involve the fusion of gametes (sex cells) and does not contribute to genetic diversity. Asexual reproduction occurs in various forms across different organisms, including bacteria, fungi, plants, and some animals. Methods of asexual reproduction are fission, sporulation, budding, vegetative propagation, artificial propagation, parthenogenesis and apomixis etc.
