Question

Select the statement that is true
Sexual reproduction produces more offspring than asexual reproduction.

Answer 1

The statement "Sexual reproduction produces more offspring than asexual reproduction" is not true. Generally, asexual reproduction often produces more offspring in a shorter amount of time compared to sexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction typically involves a single organism producing offspring that are genetically identical to itself, allowing for rapid population growth under favorable conditions. In contrast, sexual reproduction typically requires mate selection and can take longer to produce fewer offspring, but it introduces genetic diversity within the population.
