What are the advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction?????? |
While asexual reproduction only involves one organism, sexual reproduction requires both a male and a female. Some plants and unicellular organisms reproduce asexually. Most mammals and fish use sexual reproduction.sexually. Sexual reproduction offers the opportunity to produce re-combinant types that can make the populat ion better,able to keep up with changes in the environment. Species with recombination can bunch harmful mutations together and eliminate several in a single “genetic death.” |
