What are the advantages of Using Both Types of Reproduction

Leads to variations. Variations which are desirable often show hybrid vigour. High adaptability of individuals to changing environmental conditions. Variations provide a basis for evolutionary changes. The population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favourable. Only one parent is needed. It is more time and energy efficient as you don't need a mate. It is faster than sexual reproduction.

Answer: leads to a variety of genetic variation from the process of mitosis and meiosis as chromosome divide and "mix" (do not use the term mix) to create a great variation.
