Detailed explanation-1: -Though asexual reproduction is faster and more energy efficient, sexual reproduction better promotes genetic diversity through new combinations of alleles during meiosis and fertilization.

Detailed explanation-2: -Scientists who study how organisms reproduce know that asexual reproduction is more efficient-for one thing, it’s about twice as fast as sexual reproduction, since every offspring can produce more.

Detailed explanation-3: -Binary fission starts with a single cell that copies its DNA and then splits into two identical cells. This is a very fast and efficient way for bacteria and similar types of cells to create offspring.

Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual reproduction is a faster process as compared to sexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is a faster process as compared to sexual reproduction.

Detailed explanation-5: -Asexually reproducing organisms spend fewer resources for the same reproductive output, meaning their populations grow and expand faster than sexually reproducing ones.
