Asexual reproduction decreases genetic variation which is the raw material on which natural selection operates. This is because asexual reproduction produces identical offspring to the parent.

∙ 8y agoSexual reproduction increases genetic variation by swapping the mother's and father's genes in the offspring, creating an individual different from any before it.
Asexual reproduction produces no genetic variation as it simply creates a clone of that parent.

What is the Genetic material for SEXUAL REPRODUCTION?
chromosomes which cotains strands of DNA( deoxynucleic acid, I might be little off on it) and RNA.
What part of the amoeba contains genetic material and controls the reproduction?
The amoeba has within it a nucleus, that contains all the genetic material (DNA) that controls reproduction of the cell
Could the temperature of a material increases the average of its particles also increase?
If the temperature of a material increases, the average kinetic energy of its particles will increase.
What is the relationship between genetic variations and mutations?
Mutations are random changes in DNA; genetic recombinations are new arrangements of genetic material (as a result of sexual reproduction). Together, they are the "fuel" that powers the "evolution machine," the direction of which is determined by natural selection.
What process in cells undergoing meiosis increases genetic diversity?
Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity by introducing new genetic material.
What type of reproduction helps increase the genetic material of a cell?
Sexual reproduction increases the genetic material of a cell.
What is sexual reproduction where there is an exchange of genetic material?
by a asexuall reproduction

Advantages of sexual reproduction in animals?
Sexual reproduction produces offspring that have a combination of the genetic material of their parents. A variation or mutation in genetic code may be beneficial or detrimental to the animal, which will lead in its earlier death, OR survival to reproduce. Reproduction primarily by animals with beneficial mutations produces a purified genepool enabling the species to survive hard times through preference added by natural selection. Natural selection always prefers healthy genes to pass on and discard the weaker genes. This sort of a feat could only be acheived by sexual reproduction; it is not possible in asexual reproduction where the genetic code is same for the offspring as the parent unless drastic change due to sudden mutation occurs to produce altogether new species which is not normal. Co-operative procreation increases the effective evolution of a creature by a factor of 6.
Reproduction that occurs with an exchange of genetic material is?
sexual
Whats A type of reproduction when a new organisms sometimes more than one is produced that has hereditary material identical to the parent organism?
It is sexual reproduction
Which statement best describes this pattern of reproduction?
All genetic material comes from one parent
What part of the amoeba contains genetic material and controls the reproduction?
The amoeba has within it a nucleus, that contains all the genetic material (DNA) that controls reproduction of the cell
What helps in cell reproduction?
the heredity material & rhibosomes
Could the temperature of a material increases the average of its particles also increase?
If the temperature of a material increases, the average kinetic energy of its particles will increase.
Why does the resistance of a semiconducting material decrease when the temperature increases?
The no of electrons in the conduction band increases when the temperature of the semiconductor material increases. therefore resistance decreases. This is also know as "Negative temperature coefficient"
How flower sexual reproduction is similar to human sexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction involves the combining of genetic material from the male and female. This is basic to sexual reproduction so in this respect flowers and humans are the same.
