Answer 2

The production of an exact copy of an animal by asexual reproduction is known as C. cloning

Explanation:

• When a genetically identical copy of an animal cell is formed, it is called as cloning.
• It always takes place in asexual reproduction due to mitotic cell division.
• There is no recombination and alteration of genes during cloning process.
• The budding is a type of asexual reproduction that uses cloning technique to forms its offspring. The new individual formed as a result of budding is clone.
