Asexual reproduction has no advantage over sexual reproduction

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The advantages of asexual reproduction include: the population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favourable. only one parent is needed. it is more time and energy efficient as you don’t need a mate.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sexual reproduction involves two parents, whereas asexual reproduction involves only one parent. So, the offspring resulting from sexual reproduction will have mixed characteristics from both the parents and therefore, will be different from each parent. This will bring variations in the population.
Detailed explanation-3: -Which of the following is NOT an advantage of asexual reproduction? It results in greater genetic variation among offspring than does sexual reproduction.
