3. What is one advantage and one disadvantage of asexual reproduction?

Answer 1

Sexual Advantage - more genetic variation
Sexual Disadvantage - slower reproduction rate.

Advantage of Asexual - doesn't require fertilization.
Disadvantage of Asexual - little variation, which could lead to extinction

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

advantages of sexual reproduction

• In sexual reproduction, genetic information from both the parents is combined,which results in a greater chance of evolution, genetic diversity and formation of a unique individual.

disadvantage of sexual reproduction

• In sexual reproduction, a suitable mate is required to reproduce and fewer offspring are produced.

advantages of asexual reproduction

• In asexual reproduction offspring is produced from the single parent, a partner is not required and more offsprings are produced.

disadvantage of asexual reproduction

• In asexual reproduction, genetic material is not exchanged, offspring are identical and this causes diversity to be limited.
