Answer:

C. increases genetic diversity

Step-by-step explanation:

First, by process of elimination: sexual production doesn't necessarily increase survival rate, it can, but not always. Sexual reproduction involves two parents, so b is wrong. And sexual reproduction doesn't produce identical offspring, because it's mixing the genes from both parents, do d is wrong. That only leaves c, with two parents, the gene pool is always expanding, and with less chance of mutation

hope this helps:)
