Advantages of sexual reproduction:
 In sexual reproduction, more variations are produced. Thus, it ensures survival of
species in a population.
 The new formed individual has characteristics of both the parents.
 Variations are more viable in sexual mode than in asexual one. This is because in
asexual reproduction, DNA has to function inside the inherited cellular apparatus.
