which type of reproduction leads to increased genetic variation on a population
Added by Roy G.
Step 1
Asexual reproduction involves only one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. This means that there is no genetic variation in the population. On the other hand, sexual reproduction involves two parents and produces offspring Show more…
