What are the benefits of asexual reproduction for plants and animals? Some benefits of Asexual Reproduction include, A better chance of survival will be hand(more species), Just a little time and resources are used and It is a much more simpler procedure.

Just a little time and resources are used.	There might be problems with crowding.
It is a much more simpler procedure.	Lack of genetic Diversity.

1. What are advantages & disadvantages of sexual reproduction?

Advantages:	Disadvantages:
It removes bad genes from the population.	It requires two parents.
It promotes survival.	It takes time and energy.
More unique individuals added to the population.	There is only a limited amount of offspring.
