Asexual reproduction is an advantage in a stable environment. This is because it produces offspring genetically identical to the parent which is already well adapted and suited to the environment. Because the parent is well adapted, all its offspring will be too, increasing their chances of survival in a stable environment.
This contrasts sexual reproduction where each offspring is slightly different to the parent and therefore isn't suited exactly the same way as the parent is to the environment. Some of the offspring will adapt and survive but the others won't. Sexual is also best for changing environment
Asexual is best for stable environment
Asexual reproduction is also advantageous when species numbers are low, as the requirement of a mate to reproduce doesn't exist.

Asexual reproduction can be advantageous in stable environments where offspring are genetically identical to the parent, ensuring successful adaptation to current conditions. It also allows for rapid population growth since there is no need to find a mate.

What is one advantage of asexual reproduction?
One advantage of asexual reproduction is that it allows for rapid reproduction and population growth because individuals can produce offspring without the need for a mate.
What are the advantage and disadvantage of sexual and asexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction does not lead to genetic variations while sexual reproduction leads to genetic variations. In asexual reproduction there is no limitation/restrictions for gametes to be fertilized.In sexual reproduction if either of the gametes do not function/not present then the possibility of reproduction becomes nil.Asexual reproduction gives rise to multiple daughter cells from mother cells while sexual reproduction normally gives rise to only two daughter cells.

What advantage might asexual repoduction by fission have over sexual reproduction?
C
What is advantage of asexual reproduction over sexual reproduction?
It is generally though that sexual recombination is the greatest advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction. By recombining genes you get many variants that may have some members of the population resistant to some environmental challenge. Asexuality just gives clones.
What are one advantage and one disadvantage of asexual reproduction compared with sexual reproduction?
One advantage of asexual reproduction is that it is more efficient as it does not require the search for a mate. One disadvantage is that it results in lower genetic diversity, making populations more susceptible to diseases and environmental changes.

The other name for asexual reproduction is agamogenesis.
What is the creation of offspring from only one organism called?
asexual reproduction. Mitosis.
