  3. A larger number of offspring are produced in a comparatively much shorter period.
  4. A large amount of energy and huge time is saved in the process.

The major disadvantages of the asexual mode of reproduction are stated below:

  1. There will be no existence of genetic variation in the population.
  2. Both the parent and the daughter will contain exact genetic composition.
  3. Since there is no variation observed, an entire population can become extinct in the future.
