How is sexual and asexual alike?
sexual and asexual reproduction are not alike at all because of the following reasons sexual:any part of the plant other then the seeds takes place in the reproduction 2:plants produced by sexual reproduction take less to grow and bear fruit or flower then those produced from seeds. Yes, they are alike because they both produce babies that are like them. -girlyj
How many parents does an asexual reproduction organism have?
Asexual means "not sexual": These organisms do not use sexual reproduction, which requires two parents. An asexual organism therefore only has one parent. Asexual organisms are simple and single-celled (unicellular). When the cell divides, the organism had reproduced. This has an advantage: The organism doesn't need another of its own kind to pass its genetic material on. It also has a disadvantage: The genetics of asexual organisms are less diverse. Sexual reproduction allows organisms to be more adaptible than asexual reproduction, since more unique combinations of genes can result with sexual reproduction.
What are some advantages of asexual and sexual reproduction?
Requires much less time and effort, as you need not find a mate. Can reproduce many quickly. But they will all be the same, so beware of genetic defects!
How does DNA in offspring produced by asexual reproduction compare to DNA in offspring produced by sexual reproduction?
If an offspring was produced through asexual reproduction, its genes will be exactly like its parent. This is more or less a clone of the parent. An example of this is a bacterium. If an offspring is produced through sexual reproduction, it will contain genes from both parents. (such as humans)
Why is sexual reproduction more advantageous than cloning?
Sexual reproduction causes the child to be somewhat different from the parents, which might be advantageous in terms of adapting to the environment. A clone will be a precise copy of the parent, which is bad news if the environment is changing.
What is disadvantage of sexual reproduction?
It takes more energy than asexual reproduction. It produces much less offspring than asexual reproduction does.
Does sexual reproduction requires less tissue differentiation than asexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction uses less tissue
What is asexual reproduction versus sexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction is basically the act of an organism making an exact copy of itself without the help of another organism, while sexual reproduction is the act of two organisms crossing their genetics to create offspring.

Is there more or less variation with asexual reproduction?
There is less variation with asexual reproduction.

Does asexual reproduction increase the chances of natural selection?
No, it doesn't. It doesn't help to form new species since the offspring are clones and exactly the same.
What is the genetic outcome of asexual reproduction?
an organism genetically identical to its parent, unless mutation occurs. Even in the case of mutation, there is less genetic diversity than there would be in sexual reproduction.

How do enterococcaceae reproduce?
It reproduces by asexual reproduction which means it does not need a male and female. It reproduces by single-celled oragnisms through fission. It requires less energy and is more faster than sexual reproduction.
