#13
What is the main difference between asexual and sexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction involves two parents, sexual reproduction involves one.
Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring, sexual reproduction produces genetically diverse offspring.
Asexual reproduction occurs only in plants, sexual reproduction occurs only in animals.
Asexual reproduction is slower than sexual reproduction.
