Question
- what is the main difference between sexual and asexual reproduction? sexual reproduction involves mitosis, while asexual involves meiosis asexual reproduction involves the fusion of sperm and egg asexual reproduction is faster than sexual reproduction sexual reproduction involves two parents, while asexual involves only one
Brief Explanations
Sexual reproduction requires two parents to contribute genetic material through the union of gametes (sperm and egg). Asexual reproduction involves only one parent, and offspring are genetically identical to the parent. It does not involve the fusion of gametes. Also, sexual reproduction involves meiosis for gamete - formation, while asexual reproduction often involves mitosis. The speed difference is a secondary characteristic.
