⭕ Why is the offspring formed by asexual reproduction referred to as clone?

\Huge{\mathfrak{\blue{\underline{ANSWER}}}}

➡️ A clone is a group of morphologically and genetically identical individuals.

➡️ In the process of asexual reproduction, only one parent is involved and there is no fusion of the male and the female gamete.

➡️ As a result, the offsprings so produced are morphologically and genetically similar to their parents and are thus, called clones.
