sort of reproduction is not shown in any plants or animals?

loning
sexual
arthenogenesis
exual

The correct answer is: loning

Reproduction through cloning is a process that does not involve the fertilization of an egg by sperm, and therefore is not considered a type of sexual reproduction. It is a form of asexual reproduction that results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. Sexual reproduction, on the other hand, involves the fusion of haploid gametes from two parents to create a genetically diverse offspring. Ectogenesis is also a type of asexual reproduction, but it is a form of self-fertilization where an egg develops without being fertilized by sperm. Similarly, arthenogenesis is a form of asexual reproduction found in some invertebrates where the female produces offspring without mating with a male. Therefore, cloning is the only option that does not involve sexual reproduction in any way.
