HEY DEAR....
HERE'S YOUR ANSWER ⬇
# Offspring are genetic clones. A negative mutation can make asexually produced organisms susceptible to disease and can destroy large numbers of offspring.
# Some methods of asexual reproduction produce offspring that are close together and compete for food and space.
# Unfavourable conditions such as extreme temperatures can wipe out entire colonies.
Any doubts, please ask me in the comments.
I HOPE YOU FIND IT HELPFUL.

DISADVANTAGES:
The disadvantages of asexual reproduction are:
》Asexual reproduction involves rapid multiplication of an individual and large number of offsprings are produced which causes overcrowding.
》No variation takes place as there is no mixing of genetic material.
》Linkages are not formed due to absence of crossing over.
》It does not involve in the process of evolution.
》Low chances of adaptibility to changes in environment.
