Why is it false that sexual reproduction is the only mechanism for genetic change?

I believe that mutations are considered to play a part, whether genetically mutated or selected by the changes in an environment.
Eg. In a wet environment type A will survive and dominate the population thereby producing more type mutations As in the nxt generation. However, should a drought hit and type B carries the genes tht enable it to survive droughts better, then the 3rd generation will mostly contain type B mutants.

What type of reproduction leads to genetic diversity?
Sexual reproduction contributes to genetic diversity.
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.
Which describes an advantage of sexual reproduction?
Genetic variation
What sexual reproduction give species?
The most important characteristic of sexual reproduction is genetic variability between parents and offspring.
Does sexual reproduction increase or decreases genetic diversity?
increase
How does sexual reproduction affect genetic traits?
Asexual reproduction impacts genetic variation by limiting future genetic change to mutations only; sexual reproduction allows future generation to mix in a nearly infinite range of phenotypes (external appearance).
What type of reproduction leads to genetic diversity?
Sexual reproduction contributes to genetic diversity.
What genetic processes allow a species to change over time?
Mutations and the genetic shuffling that occurs with sexual reproduction
What is a list of the advantages of sexual reproduction?
Greater genetic variety - which can lead to evolutionary change.
What is sexual reproduction where there is an exchange of genetic material?
by a asexuall reproduction
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.
Why does sexual reproduction provide more opportunities for genetic variation than sexual reproduction?
In sexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to either parent.
Which form of reproduction leds to the greatest genetic diversity?
Sexual reproduction.
What type of reproduction helps increase the genetic material of a cell?
Sexual reproduction increases the genetic material of a cell.
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.
Does sexual reproduction increase genetic diversity?
Yes
Which describes an advantage of sexual reproduction?
Genetic variation
