Why is parthenogenesis in bees considered to be a form of asexual reproduction? Select one: a. The male drone is made from a haploid egg. Fertilization is not part of the process to make a male drone. b. The formation of the original haploid cell was achieved using binary fission. c. Although genetic material is transferred from one cell to another using conjugation, the resulting cells will be identical to each other. d. The haploid male bees were made through the process of meiosis, so they are identical to the parent egg cell
