|
A primary benefit of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction is
|
increased probability that some offspring will have traits that help them survive in changing conditions.
|
|
the ability to produce offspring without any genetic disorders.
|
|
the decreased probability that some offspring will have genes that are different from the parent, who is already well adapted to the environment.
|
|
the reproduction of clones that can produce a new genes through mutation.

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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. a disease is less likely to affect all the individuals in a population.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sexual reproduction is important because it increases genetic variation in a population.
Detailed explanation-3: -Yes, it is true that offsprings born from sexual reproduction have better survival rates than those of asexual reproduction. This is because during sexual reproduction, the gametes of two parents, male and female, come together and fuse. Thus, the offspring has the genetic material of both the parents.
