What is the difference between sexual reproduction and genetic variation?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
There is no difference. Sexual reproduction is a source of genetic variation. Because during sexual reproduction within humans, a sperm cell and egg, each consisting of different genetic codes, combine to form a completely different DNA. Immediately, a genetic variation occurs between the parents and the offspring because of the union of the gamete cells, a sperm and egg.

∙ 12y ago1-sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction where two gametes were diffused together.
2-fertilization takes place.
3-it is a long term process
1-Cloning is the creation of an organism that is an exact genetic copy of another. This means that every single bit of DNA is the same between the two

Which of these is the major difference between asexual and sexual reproduction in sea stars?
There is genetic variation in the sea stars as a result of sexual reproduction.
What is the advantage of genetic recombination as a mode of reproduction in bacteria?
greater genetic variation. (e2020 answer)
Sexual reproduction evolved before the evolution of?
Multicellular organisms
An advantage of sexual reproduction is?
An advantage of a sexual reproduction is that it is able to produce more offspring because of the mate. Children are different from the parents and more genetic variation species.
Evaluate the significance of mutations and repair of mutations to the evolution of sexual reproduction?
evaluate the significance of mutations and repairof mutations to the evolution of sexual reproduction
Which of these is the major difference between asexual and sexual reproduction in sea stars?
There is genetic variation in the sea stars as a result of sexual reproduction.
Which of these is necessary for natural selection to occur genetic engeneering genetic variation asexual reproduction or enviormental stability?
Genetic variation
Which describes an advantage of sexual reproduction?
Genetic variation
What is the source of genetic variation in asexual reproduction?
Mutation.
Which of these is not a source of genetic variation in a population?
The answer is sexual reproduction
Asexual reproduction increases genetic variation-the raw material on which natural selection operates?
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.
What is the advantage of genetic recombination as a mode of reproduction in bacteria?
greater genetic variation. (e2020 answer)
Which produces genetic variation asexual or sexual reproduction?
both
Why is sexual reproduction preferable to a species?
It promotes genetic variation.
Why meiosis provides genetic variation?
Sexual reproduction (using meiosis) provides genetic variation because the two parent's traits are combined. With asexual reproduction, the parent gene is just duplicated.
What are the two main sources of genetic variation and which of them is more common?
The two main sources of genetic variation are sexual reproduction, and mutation. Sexual reproduction is more common.
What is the difference between mutation and variation?
variation is difference between genes and trait among individual* organism within population. mutation is change in genetic instruction I hope it helps
