In sexual reproduction, two parents combine their geneticmaterial to form a new organim. Meanwhile, genetic variation can give the new organism a helpful trait or unhelpful trait that would affect its life and how it could life in a certain enviornment.

Which of these is necessary for natural selection to occur genetic engeneering genetic variation asexual reproduction or enviormental stability?
Genetic variation
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 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 sexual reproduction and genetic variation?
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.
