Sexual reproduction produces genetic variation. Why could that be seen as a benefit?(1 point)

New combinations make for different-looking organisms, so individuals are different and can easily be identified as unique.

Having individuals that look different allows predators to target specific individuals, which is beneficial for those that are not targeted.
