Question

  1. if environmental conditions changed for an organism, why would if be an disadvantage to reproduce asexually? 10. draw a picture of one organism that reproduces asexually.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. When environmental conditions change, genetic variation is crucial for survival. Since asexual reproduction doesn't introduce new genetic combinations, the offspring may lack the traits needed to adapt to the new environment.

Answer:

Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring. Without genetic variation, they may not adapt to new environmental conditions.
