Study Notes

Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction

Asexual reproduction involves only one parent, resulting in offspring that are clones (genetically identical to the parent).
There's no genetic recombination in asexual reproduction.
Sexual reproduction involves meiosis, producing sperm and egg cells.
Offspring produced through sexual reproduction are genetically different from their parents. This allows species to adapt quickly to changing conditions.
