Detailed explanation-1: -During sexual reproduction the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring that differ from their parents. The genetic diversity of sexually produced offspring is thought to give species a better chance of surviving in an unpredictable or changing environment.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Sexual reproduction increases diversity in the genetic structure. Offspring produced are less likely to get affected by diseases that are specific to the population, as they have increased vitality. Variation produced can influence the adaptation and help their survival.
