Some plants (especially flowering plants), mammals (such as humans, lions, etc.), almost all reptiles, most insects and most fish (eg. Guppy) undergo sexual reproduction.
Not all but, some aphids can alternate between asexual and sexual reproduction by creating eggs or live nymphs. nymphs undergo metamorphosis before reaching adult stage.
Amoeba reproduce asexually, along with every other type of bacteria.
sexual reproduction requires meiosis, a process in which a parent cell divides to in half and only have half on the chromosomes: 23 asexual reproduction is a process in which only one parent produces another organism :)
The only major similarity is that you get a type of offspring. During asexual reproduction, an organism essentially self mates. This doesnt necessarily produce identical offspring, but close. Actually, with asexual reproduction, mutations are more likely to be phenotypically present in the next generation. So technically, you get offspring that does share genes from dad and mom, but in asexual reproduction, dad and mom are the same people.
Asexual reproduction allows an organism to reproduce without a mate. It is an advantage when organisms are few and far between. Sexual reproduction gives a huge advantage under normal circumstances in that the process of evolution runs much faster.
Sexual reproduction needs 'male' and 'female', and involves exchange of biological matter between both sexes. Asexual reproduction needs no-one but the individual organism.
The difference between sexual and asexual is that in sexual reproduction, there are two parents, and in asexual, there is only one. In sexual reproduction, the two parents mix up their genes and produce a mix between the two parents. Asexual reproduction produces an exact match of the parent, since there were only the genes from the one parent.
Sexual reproduction requires an two haploid gametes fusing to form a single diploid organism. Asexual reproduction does not.

asexual reproduction is an exact copy made from only one organism. The latter is from two organisms.
Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of two half-cells, or gametes, to create an offspring, e.g. in humans. Asexual reproduction referes to reproduction without the need for another organism, e.g. binary fission (spliting) in bacteria.
Sexual Reproduction : When two organisms have sex to reproduce. Example : humans, mammals, etc. Asexual Reproduction : When it's only one organism reproducing without the help of another organism. Example : Flowers, Some plants, even some fish. Hope that helped :)

The main categories of reproduction are sexual and asexual. Two types of reproduction are asexual and sexual reproduction.
They are both forms of reproduction.
options: In asexual reproduction 1) no gametes required 2) all resulting cells are clones of the first cell 3) there is no exchange of genetic oinformation 4) it is exponential 5) occurs through mitosis rather than meiosis
