Yes, there will always be mutations.However, with sexual reproduction, there is a tendency for greater genetic variations.

What are the advantages of both asexual and sexual reproduction?

Asexual reproduction allows for rapid reproduction and efficient use of resources, while sexual reproduction promotes genetic diversity and adaptation to changing environments.


What are the differences between asexual and sexual reproductuo n?

Asexual reproduction involves a single parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. Sexual reproduction involves two parents and produces offspring with genetic variation due to the combination of genetic material from both parents.


How do fungi reproduce, and what are the differences between sexual and asexual reproduction in fungi?

Fungi reproduce through both sexual and asexual methods. In sexual reproduction, two different mating types of fungi come together to exchange genetic material and form spores. This process creates genetic diversity. In asexual reproduction, fungi produce spores without the need for mating, resulting in genetically identical offspring. Sexual reproduction allows for genetic variation, while asexual reproduction produces clones of the parent organism.


What are the similarities between asexual and sexual reproduction?

* Involves at least one parent * Plants and animals involved. [some are sexual while others are asexual] * Produce offspring * Forms of reproduction


What reproduction allows plants more variation?

Sexual because it has variations from the different parents' when asexual only has one parent. This refers to DNA because the offspring holds the DNA of the parents(which refers to the 23 chromosomes coming from each parent.)

What are the advantages and disadvantages of both asexual and sexual reproduction?

Asexual reproduction does not lead to genetic variations while sexual reproduction leads to genetic variations. In asexual reproduction there is no limitation/restrictions for gametes to be fertilized.In sexual reproduction if either of the gametes do not function/not present then the possibility of reproduction becomes nil.Asexual reproduction gives rise to multiple daughter cells from mother cells while sexual reproduction normally gives rise to only two daughter cells.

Which description does not apply equally well to both sexual and asexual spores?

The ability to undergo meiosis and produce genetic variation does not apply equally well to both sexual and asexual spores. Sexual spores are formed through meiosis, which shuffles genetic material and leads to genetic variation. Asexual spores, on the other hand, are produced by mitosis and do not contribute to genetic diversity.


Why is there great variations in the offspring produced through sexual reproduction but little or no variations in the offspring produced through asexual reproduction?

In asexual reproduction there is no independent orientation of chromosomes, not crossing over and no random fertilization. Cloning the exact genetic material from organism to progeny is all asexual reproduction is. So, very little chance of anything but mutation, copying errors, are going to happen in asexual reproduction.

Are fly asexual?

they are both asexual and sexual


Is a starfish a sexual or asexual?

Both.


Is a animalia sexual or asexual reproduction?

animalia is the kingdom of animals so if animals reproduce the it can be both ways.

Is bacteria sexual or asexual?

Bacteria can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Asexual reproduction includes binary fission, where a bacterial cell divides into two identical daughter cells. Sexual reproduction in bacteria involves genetic recombination through a process called conjugation, where genetic material is transferred between bacterial cells.
