Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction by which offspring come from a single organism and inherit the genes of that parent only. Advantages are that it can reproduce twice as many, doesn't require fertilization, and are quick to colonize. Disadvantages are that reproduction is based of the amount of food and there is very little fertilization. Sexual reproduction is the production of a new living organism by combining genetic information from two individuals of different genders. Advantages are that there is more genetic variation, children are different from parents, and are able to produce more kids because of mate. Disadvantages are that there's a slower reproduction rate, less reliable reproduction, and it takes time and energy to find a mate.
