Question

Which sentence in the passage describes the benefits of sexual reproduction?

Answer 1

The sentence in the passage which describes the benefits of sexual reproduction is this: 'THE FUSION CREATES A UNIQUE RECOMBINANT BLEND IN THE OFFSPRING'.
This sentence is telling us that the advantage of sexual reproduction is that, the offspring that is produced is genetically different and unique from its parents because it was made from the combination of two different gene pools, one from the male parent and the other from the female parent.

Answer 2

The third sentence is the correct one. The sentence is basically saying that the fusion is making a unique blend of genes in the offspring. Which increases genetic variation. And the question asked for a benefit or advantage and that is the biggest one of all.
