The offspring will have the exact same genetic makeup as the parent.

There are two major types of reproduction in living organisms, these are sexual and asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which an offspring is derived from a single parent. The offspring derived from the parent inherit DNA molecule from its parent, thus, the genetic information in both the parent and the offspring are identical. Thus, in asexual reproduction, the parent and the offspring possess identical genetic make up.
