Three drawbacks to sexual reproduction include the need for a mate, the potential for genetic disorders to be inherited, and the energy cost involved in finding and courtship of a mate.
Sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction are two types of reproduction seen in living organisms. Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of two gametes from different individuals to produce offspring with genetic variation. Asexual reproduction involves producing offspring from a single parent, resulting in genetically identical offspring.
Deuteromycetes is the informal name given to fungi in which a sexual phase has not been observed. These fungi are characterized by their asexual reproduction methods and lack of a known sexual reproductive stage.
In asexual reproduction there are 2 daughter cells produced that are identical to the parent cell. In sexual reproduction there are 4 genetically different daughter cells produced that are haploid (23 chromosomes). Crossing over occurs during meiosis which mixes up segments of DNA on homologous chromosomes causing new genetic variations. By the sperm fertilizing the egg, you are combining 2 completely different sets of different haploid DNA to produce a diploid offspring which is genetically different from both parents.
The other name for asexual reproduction is agamogenesis.

Frog reproduction is called "spawn" or "clutch", while human reproduction is also commonly referred to as "sexual reproduction".

The sexual spores in Penicillium are called ascospores. They are produced within a sac-like structure called an ascus during sexual reproduction.
The name given to three of the fungal phyla (Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, and Glomeromycota) is based on their method of sexual reproduction. These phyla are named after the structures involved in their sexual reproduction: ascus (sac), basidium (club), and glomerule (cluster), respectively.

Sex cells in organisms that produce offspring by sexual reproduction are called gametes. In males, the gametes are called sperm, while in females, the gametes are called eggs.
