What would happen if humans reproduced asexually? Explain what humans would look like and think about what would happen to society. (Hint: Would all of the jobs we need in society be taken care of? Would humans survive if a deadly bacterium infected people?)

Answer:

We wouldn't need a partner.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we don't need a partner, we would grow up with an individual parent. no man or woman- just Person. We wouldn't get married or divorced- at least we wouldn't have a reason to. With that, there are no more broken homes unless the one parent they would've had left. We would still have countless jobs, but we wouldn't require a level of attraction to mate and reproduce for our species to continue. We would eventually overpopulate at the rate we are growing though. If a deadly bacterium infected us, we would die normally. There are no added effects from being able to reproduce asexually.
