No (as you are aware), because segregation is only happens in the development of gametes (sex cells like sperm and eggs). During asexual reproduction no gametes are used.

No......it is not important. Asexual reproduction focuses mainly on PASSING DOWN THE GENES...segregation is not a must...however it might happen...
