APEX

Answer 2

Even though the asexual way of reproducing has its advantages (it can be fast, it spends less energy and eliminates the search for a partner) it can be harmful to the species' genetic variability. When an organism reproduces asexually all of the offspring are genetic clones of the parents. This can lead to a decrease in the genetic variability of the population, making it unable to change, evolve and respond to the changes in its environment.
