Question

Write one main difference between asexual and sexual mode of reproduction. Which species is likely to have comparatively better chances of survival – the one reproducing asexually or the one reproducing sexually? Give reason to justify your answer.(All India - 2018)

Explanation:

The species reproducing sexually has better chances of survival cause asexual reproduction results in offspring having the same properties whereas sexual reproduction results in variation among offsprings. Hence during adverse conditions, populations having variations along themselves have a better chance for survival.
