Nope! Asexual reproduction skips meiosis entirely. It uses mitosis, which means no genetic variation鈥攋ust a clone of the parent!

Absolutely not. Meiosis is all about genetic diversity, which asexual reproduction doesn鈥檛 need.

No. Asexual reproduction relies on mitosis to produce genetically identical offspring.
