Advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction

(5 marks answer )Class 10th biologypoints :15 :)thanks in advance

Answered by admin @



In asexual reproductionn the offsprings are almost identical to their parent because they have the same genes as of their parents. Thus, genetic variation is not possible or is slow in asexual reproduction.


Sexual reproduction involves fusion of male and female gametes coming from both the parents. This is because the offsprings receive some genes from mother and some from father.The mixing of these genes of mother and father in various different combinations, results in the offsprings having genetic variation.


Thus, we conclude that sexual reproduction promotes diversity of charecters in offsprings by providing genetic variation. This genetic variation leads to continuous evolution of various species to form better and still better organisms.'
