Disadvantages of sexual reproduction in plants include the need for a pollinator, the chance of producing offspring with undesirable traits due to genetic recombination, and the investment of energy required to produce flowers and attract pollinators.
Sexually reproducing organisms inherit their alleles from their parents. Offspring receive one copy of each gene from each parent, leading to genetic variation.
Through Meiosis
Firstly, mutation. In a sexually reproducing population recombination ( independent orientation of chromosomes and crossing over in meiosis and random fertilization ) is also a source of variation in populations.
Plants are 1) Eukaryotic, 2) Photosynthetic, 3) Multicellular, 4) Sexually reproducing, and 5) their Life History involves an alternation of a haploid phase (Gametophyte) with a diploid phase (Sporophyte)
It increases the genetic diversity of the tree's offspring.
they multiply
Ova are produced by sexually reproducing animals, protists, fungi and flowering plants and ferns
Yes, fungi are capable of reproducing both asexually and sexually.
Sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species in their ability to use two different sex cells.
Sexually-reproducing species are able to adapt more easily than asexual-reproduciing species
If meiosis did not occur in sexually reproducing organisms, the chromosome number would double in each generation. Sexual reproduction results in new combinations of genetic traits.

The gametes.
Vegetatively propagated plants are exact clones of each other and share the same DNA, while plants reproducing sexually produce offspring not sharing the same DNA, therefore they will show variations.
The genetic material of a sexually reproducing organism evolves for better adaptations.
