NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -It strengthens the ability of species and populations to resist diseases, pests, changes in climate and other stresses. Gene variations underpin their capacity to evolve and their flexibility to adapt.

Detailed explanation-2: -it produces variation in the offspring. the species can adapt to new environments due to variation, which gives them a survival advantage.

Detailed explanation-3: -Although asexual reproduction produces more offspring more quickly, any benefits of diversity among those offspring are lost.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is a likely evolutionary advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction? Sexual reproduction involves fewer steps. There is a lower chance of using up the resources in a given environment. Sexual reproduction results in variation in the offspring.
