Detailed explanation-2: -Sexual reproduction allows for greater genetic innovation over time than clonal, improving the chances that an organism can solve the problems at hand.

Detailed explanation-3: -Single celled organisms such as bacteria reproduce asexually. Among complex organisms, many plants and even some animals do too. These include bananas, starfish, and even komodo dragons. Despite this, up to 99% of complex organisms reproduce sexually, at least some of the time.
