|
offspring are identical to parents
|
|
offspring are resistant to viruses
|
|
offspring are born live, rather than from eggs
|
|
offspring inherit a wider variety of genetic information
|
Detailed explanation-1: -The offspring inherit a mixture of genes from both parents, so are different to each other and their parents. The advantages of sexual reproduction: produces genetic variation in the offspring. the species can adapt to new environments due to variation, which gives them a survival advantage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The correct answer is (b) Sexual reproduction provides more genetic variability. Sexual reproduction produces genetically diverse offspring from two separate parents, resulting in more genetic variability.
Detailed explanation-3: -In sexual reproduction both parents are involved hence offspring get attributes of both parents. Organisms produced by sexual reproduction have a greater survival rate as compared to asexual reproduction as organisms have variation which is adapted to various environments.
Detailed explanation-4: -The advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction are that sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity. This can lead to increased resistance to disease, more evolution, and decreased recessive disorders.
