<span>Mitosis is Asexual reproduction. It promotes genetic consistency because all offspring are exactly identical to the parent, unlike meiosis where homologous chromosomes are randomly dispersed between four daughter cells. organisms that only reproduce asexually are at a disadvantage because all organisms in their population are identical so if there were to be a major environmental change, they would have less of a chance of survival compared to a population of sexually reproducing organisms that are all genetically different.</span>
