Offspring has characteristics of both parents It can lead to the formation of new species. enhances the probability that the next generation will survive the population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favorable. only one parent is needed. it is faster than sexual reproduction. it is more time and energy efficient Requires two organisms requires more energy Favorable genes may not be passed down to the offspring. Reproduction is not always successful. any harmful mutation will also pass on to the offspring. The organisms produced have shorter lifespans. It is hard to control the increasing population. There is only limited diversity within the life forms. does not occur during asexual reproduction. None of the above
