ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
If the environment changes for an Asexual offspring, it will-
A
Explode
B
Create another offspring
C
Fall in love
D
Die
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In an unstable or unpredictable environment asexually-reproducing species may be at a disadvantage because all the offspring are genetically identical and may not have the genetic variation to survive in new or different conditions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual Species Can Adapt to their Environment Even Without Changing their DNA. Humans, and most animals we know, reproduce sexually-our offspring contain a genetic code that is a mix of both parents, allowing for greater genetic variability.

Detailed explanation-3: -Having stable environmental conditions, with ample food, water, and safe habitat available, favors asexual reproduction as there is little need for genetic adaptation to environmental stresses.
