Sexual reproduction only happens in animals, while asexual reproduction only happens in plants
|
|
|
Sexual reproduction requires fertilization of one gamete by another gamete, while asexual reproduction only requires one parent to produce an offspring
|
|
|
Sexual reproduction only happens in single celled organisms, while asexual reproduction only happens in multicellular organisms
|
|
|
Sexual reproduction only happens when cells have a nucleus, while asexual reproduction only happens when cells do not have a nucleus

Detailed explanation-1: -Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes whereas asexual reproduction does not require male and female individuals and no fusion of gametes takes place.
Detailed explanation-2: -Asexual reproduction generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic information to produce unique offspring.
Detailed explanation-3: -Reproduction is the production of offspring. There are two main forms: sexual and asexual reproduction. In sexual reproduction, an organism combines the genetic information from each of its parents and is genetically unique. In asexual reproduction, one parent copies itself to form a genetically identical offspring.
Detailed explanation-4: -Offsprings produced by asexual reproduction are different from parents and genetic variation does not occur. In contrast, sexual reproduction leads to genetic variation.
Detailed explanation-5: -Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which there is an involvement of two different sexes. Males produce male gametes and female produce female gametes. Both these gametes are haploid in nature as they are a result of meiotic cell division. Sexual reproduction also takes place in plants.
