Which statement correctly describes a difference between asexual reproduction

Question

sexual reproduction only happens in animals while asexual reproduction only happens in plants

sexual reproduction only happens in prokaryotes while asexual reproduction only happens in eukaryotes

sexual reproduction requires fertilization of one gamete by another gamete while asexual reproduction requires only one parent to produce an offspring

sexual reproduction only occurs in cells without a nucleus while asexual reproduction occurs in cells with a nuclues

Answer 1

The statement that correctly describes a difference between asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction is:

Sexual reproduction requires fertilization of one gamete by another gamete while asexual reproduction requires only one parent to produce an offspring.

This statement accurately reflects the fundamental difference between the two reproductive processes. Asexual reproduction typically involves a single organism producing offspring without the combination of genetic material from two parents, while sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes from two parents, resulting in genetic variation among the offspring.
