Answer:

In asexual reproduction there is no mating or mixing of genetics. Asexual reproduction results in a clone of the parent, meaning the offspring have identical DNA as the parent.

One way for an asexually reproducing species to get diversity is through mutations at the DNA level. If there is a mistake in mitosis, the copying of the DNA, then that mistake will be passed down to the offspring, possibly changing its traits. Some mutations do not change the phenotype—or observable characteristics—however, so not all mutations in asexual reproduction result in variations in the offspring.​

Which is required for sexual reproduction? mitosis binary fission diploid cell production meiosis mitosis binary fission diploid
dsp73
Meiosis (SEXUAL cell division) is a type of Mitosis (cell division). 
Diploid cell production happens during meiosis when the haploid (n) cells from the parents divide into TWO diploid (2n) cells (which have the complete set of chromosomes from the parents). 

Basically, meiosis is required for sexual reproduction (unless in your question you can choose more than one answer...so it'll be meiosis, diploid cell production, mitosis)

Disassembly of the nuclear envelope ________________. select one:
Alex777 [14]
Disassembly of the nuclear envelope must occur for kinetochore microtubules to form in animal cells. This disassembly of nuclear envelope is triggered by the cyclin-dependent kinase at the onset of mitosis. The reassembly is mediated by multiple interactions of the INM proteins with chromatin. Dephosphorylation of INM proteins at late anaphase/telophase is required for nuclear envelope reassembly.
