Answer 2

Answer:

Cacti produce flowers to reproduce sexually. Sexual reproduction is the way living organisms keep genetic diversity going in the population. Genetic diversity is important for adaptivity; if environmental conditions change, some members of a genetically diverse population may have traits that will enable them to survive and thrive under the changed conditions.

Cacti can also reproduce asexually, by producing offshoots (also called “offsets” or “pups”). The pups are genetically identical to the parent plant that produced them.
