Each parent contributes only half of their genetic material to the offspring and the merging of genetic material from each parent may result in a traits different from what the generic material invoked in each parent.
they are equal
half of the offspring's genes come from one parent while the other half comes from the other parent.
idk the answer please help me :(
The offspring is not identical to parent in sexual reproduction because sexual reproduction produces an offspring that is genetically different from the parents. ---- The answer above is actually incorrect. The offspring is identical genetically to the parent because mitosis produces cells genetically identical to the parent cell or cells. But the offspring itself is not identical.
Sexual reproduction causes most variation in organisms. This is because genes get mixed up in the process whereas in asexual reproduction the offspring is genetically identical to the parent.
When orgAnisms have sexual reproduction the genetic material of vote parents are used to make the offspring, causing the child to have different genes than the parents and have different abilities like the ability to withstand a disease.
Sexual, as opposed to asexual (budding, dividing). This is because sexual reproduction involves the combining of the parents' genomes in random ways, which all produce different results and thus different offspring.
In asexual reproduction there are 2 daughter cells produced that are identical to the parent cell. In sexual reproduction there are 4 genetically different daughter cells produced that are haploid (23 chromosomes). Crossing over occurs during meiosis which mixes up segments of DNA on homologous chromosomes causing new genetic variations. By the sperm fertilizing the egg, you are combining 2 completely different sets of different haploid DNA to produce a diploid offspring which is genetically different from both parents.

Because the offspring would be genetically unique
Asexual reproduction because in asexual reproduction, the offspring is genetically identical to the parent. One of the advantages of asexual reproduction is large population because in asexual reproduction, only one parent is involved. The types of organisms that have asexual reproduction are: Algae, yeasts, and protozoans.
Sexual reproduction causes most variation in organisms. This is because genes get mixed up in the process whereas in asexual reproduction the offspring is genetically identical to the parent.
The offspring shows variation because sexual reproduction means that there were two gametes involved (one maternal, one paternal). This means that the offspring has a new genotype, different from the parents, made up of 50% maternal genes and 50% paternal genes.
it is called chlorobiastic which means the offspring looks exactly like its parent.

Those that are different have a better chance because one may be superior than the others. If they are all alike, perhaps none will survive.

Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity, because the offspring will not be genetically identical to either parent, being a genetic blend of the two parents.
Asexual reproduction is an advantage in a stable environment. This is because it produces offspring genetically identical to the parent which is already well adapted and suited to the environment. Because the parent is well adapted, all its offspring will be too, increasing their chances of survival in a stable environment. This contrasts sexual reproduction where each offspring is slightly different to the parent and therefore isn't suited exactly the same way as the parent is to the environment. Some of the offspring will adapt and survive but the others won't. Sexual is also best for changing environment Asexual is best for stable environment Asexual reproduction is also advantageous when species numbers are low, as the requirement of a mate to reproduce doesn't exist.
