I found these things on the internet. I'm not sure if there is a correct answer.
Q.1.-Single parent involved.
-No fertilization or gamete formation takes place.
-This process of reproduction occurs in a very short time.
-The organisms multiply and grow rapidly.
-The offspring is genetically similar.
Q.2. This genetic variation can save the species from extinction since now that their original source of food is gone, and they're left with seeds. Adapting the beak can save the species from extinction due to starvation since now with their modified beaks they can consume a new food source.
Given what you know about asexual and sexual reproduction, in three to five sentences, describe both types of reproduction:
Please describe at least 3 features of asexual reproduction
Please describe at least 3 features of sexual reproduction
A species of bird has slight variations in its beak size and shape. Some individuals with bigger beaks are better at cracking seeds. Some individuals with narrower beaks are better at hunting for bugs. An invasive species is introduced that hunts all of the bug population, wiping out that food source for the birds, so all they are left with is seeds.
In one to two sentences, explain how genetic variation from sexual reproduction can save this species from extinction.

I'm not here to answer like I normally do, I'm here to report your missing piece on the subject Where is the third trait for both of the selections as the assignment stated? With further info I'll be able to help.
I apologize for the oversight on my part. Here are three features of asexual reproduction and three features of sexual reproduction:
Asexual Reproduction:
- Only involves one parent organism.
- No gamete fusion occurs; the offspring is genetically identical to the parent.
- Rapidly produces many offspring in a short amount of time.
Sexual Reproduction:
- Involves two parent organisms.
- Gamete fusion occurs, resulting in genetic variation among the offspring.
- Takes longer to produce offspring and requires a more complex process.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
