Question

Which is usually considered a disadvantage of asexual reproduction?

It is a fast method of reproduction.
It produces a large number of offspring.
It requires two parents.
Too much variability in the phenotypic expression
It produces identical offspring.

Answer 1

A disadvantage of asexual reproduction is that it produces identical offspring. It reduces the amount of genetic diversity in a population. This is harmful as if there's something that drastically affects a member of the population due to it's genes, it may affect the rest of the population as well. Hope this helped :))
