The genetic information passed from parent to offspring is contained in genes carried by chromosomes in the nucleus. Sexual reproduction produces offspring that resemble their parents, but are not identical to them. Asexual reproduction produces offspring - clones - which are genetically identical to their parents.

Genetics are carried in chromosomes which are located in the nucleus which the parents pass on to the offspring after sexual reproduction
