Which of the following is not an advantage of asexual reproduction?

Question

requires only one parent
genetic variation among offspring
less time and energy
process of reproduction is rapid

Answer 1

The option that is not an advantage of asexual reproduction is genetic variation among offspring.

Asexual reproduction typically results in offspring that are genetically identical to the single parent, meaning there is little to no genetic variation. In contrast, sexual reproduction leads to greater genetic diversity among offspring.
