It combines different sets of DNA, instead of replicating the same set.

A fertilized egg has a mixture of alleles from the two parents.

Sexual offspring are not identical to either parent.

Asexual reproduction results in offspring which are genetically the same as the parent organism (not counting a rare mutation). Sexual reproduction produces a random mixture of the genetics derived from both parents.In sexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to either parent.
An advantage of a sexual reproduction is that it is able to produce more offspring because of the mate. Children are different from the parents and more genetic variation species.
Variation of a species can come about in many ways, but mutation is the major cause of variation in a species.

When there is low genetic variation in a population the species produced are unlikely to withstand diseases.
Sexual reproduction leads to variety in offspring.
It promotes genetic variation.

immigration, mutation and sexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction results in offspring which are genetically the same as the parent organism (not counting a rare mutation). Sexual reproduction produces a random mixture of the genetics derived from both parents.In sexual reproduction, offspring are not identical to either parent.
Sexual reproduction means there is much greater scope for genetic variation of offspring. Variation is good for any species as it is this variation that allows for adaption e.g. the variation might provide some individuals with resistance to a new disease that affects the species, hence those individuals survive and thrive.
Variation within species can be caused by genetic mutations, environmental factors, and interactions between genes and the environment. Genetic mutations are changes in the DNA sequence that can create new traits. Environmental factors, such as diet and climate, can also influence variation by selecting for certain traits over others.
Genetic variation, which can lead to evoloution, and then potentially a new species.
