Sexual reproduction allows for genetic diversity. This may be helpful to allow an organism to better adapt to its environment. Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are identical to the parent. This may be helpful in that the offspring are born already adapted to the environment. If there is suddenly a shortage of one sex for a species (ex. 90% of males are wiped out due to illness), to prevent the species from dying out, it would be handy if the organism could reproduce without a mate.
Organisms that reproduce asexually include bacteria, some plants, and fungi like yeast. Organisms that reproduce sexually include humans, animals, and many plants. Some organisms have the ability to reproduce through both sexual and asexual means, like certain types of jellyfish.
Organisms such as snails, mushrooms, and some plants have the ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually. They can reproduce sexually by gametes or spores, while also being able to produce offspring through processes like budding or fragmentation.
Yes. But their modes of reproduction could be different. Some would reproduce asexually while some reproduce sexually.
Apple trees reproduce sexually through pollination, where the male pollen from one tree fertilizes the female ovules of another tree to produce seeds. They can also reproduce asexually through methods such as grafting, where a cutting from a desired tree is attached to a rootstock to grow a genetically identical tree.
