Detailed explanation-1: -Some organisms are able to do both sexual and asexual reproduction. This is particularly true for fungi and plants (and rarely, animals-as in parthenogenesis). Often, the type of reproduction that they undergo depends on their environmental conditions or the point in their growth cycles.
Detailed explanation-2: -alternation of generations, also called metagenesis or heterogenesis, in biology, the alternation of a sexual phase and an asexual phase in the life cycle of an organism. The two phases, or generations, are often morphologically, and sometimes chromosomally, distinct.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fungi reproduced through spore production both sexual and asexual.
Detailed explanation-4: -During favorable conditions, some organisms can switch to asexual reproduction to let the species spread quickly, and when the environment changes, the organism can switch to sexual reproduction which increases the chance of survival because of genetic variation.
