Please help Some organisms, such as bacteria, reproduce asexually; whereas, other organisms reproduce
sexually. Which statement correctly states why one type of reproduction is beneficial over the
other?
A. Asexually reproduced offspring are more genetically diverse.
B. Asexual reproduction produces offspring genetically different from parents.
C. Sexual reproduction can produce a large number of offspring very quickly.
D. Sexual reproduction produces organisms that are genetically diverse.

Sexual reproduction produces organisms that are genetically diverse.

Sexual reproduction involves the combination of chromosomes from both parents. This combination of chromosomes introduces variation into the population. This combination does not occur in asexual reproduction.

Hence, the statement that correctly states why one type of reproduction is beneficial over the  other is that sexual reproduction produces organisms that are genetically diverse.

D

Explanation: A isn't right because during asexual reproduction there is no exchange of genetic characteristics thus the offsprings retain the genetic characteristics of their parents and there is no diversity.

Sexual reproduction on the other hand involves the fusion of gametes and the exchange of genetic characteristics thus the offsprings are diverse and are not identical to their parents as is the contrary in asexual reproduction.

a polymer is a chainlike molecule made up of small molecular units. these small molecular units are called monomers. monomers of polymer can be joined together either naturally or synthetically.
