Asexual:

Asexual reproduction requires one parents. Asexual production creates offspring that are identical to the parent looks and genetics wise.

Sexual:

Sexual reproduction requires two. The offspring in this case look diffrent, genetically unique. If it is two offspring and one looks more like one of the other parents its because they inherited a diffrent amount of alleles.
