Answer:

The offspring of the strawberry plants are genetically identical from the parent.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case strawberry plants have asexual reproduction. It produces offspring that are genetically identical with this parent. It is important and an adventage when the offspring can find a habitat similar to the parent.

This type of reproduction is less cost in terms of energy and vegetative propagation ensures a well adapted plant will pass its genetics to next generation.

In this case the parent cell simply divides to form two daughter cell identical by mitosis where the cell duplicates All of its contentS including chromosomes.
