"The offspring produced by sexual reproduction are genetically identical."

This is incorrect. Sexual reproduction mixes parental genes through meiosis (crossing-over and independent assortment) and fertilization, so offspring are normally genetically different. (Only rare cases like monozygotic twins produce genetically identical individuals.)
