Answer: sexual reproduction.

Explanation: In asexual reproduction there is no exchange of genetic characteristics due to the lack of fusion of gametes(haploid). Thus there is practically no variation in specie.

But in sexual reproduction there is exchange of genetic characteristics resulting from the fusion of haploid gametes hence there is variation and great diversity.
