advantages of sexual reproduction:
it produces variation in the offspring
the species can adapt to new environments due to variation, which gives them a survival advantage
a disease is less likely to affect all the individuals in a population
disadvantages of sexual reproduction:
time and energy are needed to find a mate
it is not possible for an isolated individual
advantages of asexual reproduction
the population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favourable
only one parent is needed
it is more time and energy efficient as you don't need a mate
Disadvantages of asexual reproduction
it does not lead to variation in a population
the species may only be suited to one habitat
disease may affect all the individuals in a population
