Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is C. All of the genetic information comes from one parent.

Explanation:

Astrammina rara is a unicellular organism that reproduces by the asexual method of reproduction.

By asexual means, two new daughter cells are formed which are identical to the parent cells and to each other. Hence, all of the information arises from the single parent cell.

In contrary, sexual reproduction is a process by which genetic diversity arises and the offsprings get half of the chromosome from the female and half from the male parent.
