Question

Why do offspring that result from sexual reproduction most likely have greater variation than offspring that result from asexual reproduction? A. In sexual reproduction, half of the genes come from each parent, allowing for greater variability. O B. In asexual reproduction, half of the genes come from each parent, allowing for greater variability. O C. In sexual reproduction, the offspring result from budding, allowing for greater variability. O D. In asexual reproduction, the offspring result from fertilization, allowing for greater variability.​

Answer 1

In sexual reproduction, chromosomes can sometimes swap sections during the process of meiosis (cell division), thereby creating new genetic combinations and thus more genetic variation.

Answer 2

Answer: A. In sexual reproduction half of the genes come from each parent...

Explanation: It’s not B because asexual reproduction is well, asexual so it can’t have two parents. It isn’t C either because budding only happens in asexual reproduction. And it’s definan not D because asexual reproduction doesn’t require fertilization. I hope this helped, good luck!
