Open in App
Solution

The advantages of asexual reproduction over sexual reproduction are:
1) Rapid rate of reproduction: Large number of offspring is formed if the environment is favorable; hence they reproduce at a rapid rate. More individuals are formed from a single cell in less time.
2) Better chances of survival: Since large number of offspring are formed they have better chances of survival
3) The offspring produced are exactly identical to parents, so they retain the qualities of the parent cell.
