Question
One disadvantage of asexual reproduction is the limited ability to survive due to lack of variation
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
True. Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical (clones). This lack of genetic variation means that if the environment changes, or a new disease appears, the entire population may be vulnerable, as they all have the same traits.
Hint
Does cloning create variation or uniformity, and is uniformity a risk in a changing world?
