    The answer is C, asexual reproduction does not have any genetic diversity. Because of this, all the offspring of the parent are identical or clones of the parent.

    I believe the answer would be C. 'The DNA of the parent cell is identical to the DNA of the offspring.' Since the only way they could be different would be a mutation.
