The correct response is:

Sexual reproduction produces offspring that are hybrids or mixes of the parents.

In sexual reproduction, genetic material from two parents combines to form offspring that have a mix of traits from both parents. In contrast, asexual reproduction typically results in offspring that are genetically identical to the single parent, leading to less variation within the offspring.
