Solution: The asexual method of reproduction involves only one parent for the production of offspring, which is regardless of the production of gametes and their exchange. Since the mother cells generally divide and give rise to the daughter cells, there is a huge chance of similarity between them. So, the correct answer is (a) (i) and (ii).
