(N/A) Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes,which results in genetic recombination and variations.
These variations allow individuals to adapt better to changing environmental conditions,thereby increasing their chances of survival.
Unlike asexual reproduction,which produces clones,sexual reproduction introduces genetic diversity into the population.
This diversity ensures that at least some individuals may possess traits that allow them to survive if the environment undergoes drastic changes.
