    Your answer is the advantage is that sexual reproduction crates more diversity and there fore different types of resistance against different treats. A-sexual reproduction makes the exact same copy, this means that if some sort of virus mutated to kill something that was asexual it would wipe out the whole entire species because that species did not have different characteristics.

    Sexual reproduction creates diversity in a species. In asexual reproduction, the parent passes down the same traits to the offspring, creating an clone by doing so. There are advantages to asexual reproduction, but a downside of it is that if a certain disease spreads around that only affects a plant or animal with a certain trait, the whole species is most-likely to die off. Sexual reproduction will mix traits from both parents, and because there is a chance that the offspring will not inherit the trait that makes them weak against the disease, the species will live and recover faster.
