The Disadvantages of Asexual Reproduction
1. No Diversity
Since the traits of only one parent is passed on, all of the offspring are exactly identical. This causes for a very big lack of diversity among the population of these organisms.

2. Prone To Extinction
All of the same traits also means all of the same weaknesses. Parasites and other predators that have evolved to kill just one of the organisms can take out the entire population.

3. Cannot Adapt
An organism has established reactions to certain things, and all of these reactions are passed down to their offspring with asexual reproduction. This makes it impossible for them to adapt to any environment changes.
