Question

Whether the new organism is genetically exactly similar to earlier one that has produced it?

Answer 1

No, a new organism is not always genetically exactly similar to the organism that has produced it. In asexual reproduction, the offspring are usually genetically identical to the parent because they are formed from a single parent. However, small variations may occur due to minor errors during DNA copying. In sexual reproduction, the offspring inherit genetic material from both parents, resulting in genetic variations. Therefore, while offspring may resemble their parents, they are not genetically exactly the same.
