Sexual reproduction is important to avoid:
Correct answer: C. Genetic monotony
- A. Variation
- B. Chances of survival
- C. Genetic monotony
- D. All (A), (B) and (C)
Explanation
Sexual reproduction is important to avoid genetic monotony, as it introduces variability in offspring due to the combination of genetic material from two parents. This genetic diversity can be advantageous for the population's survival, as it increases the chances of adapting to changing environments and resisting diseases. Therefore, option (C) "Genetic monotony" is a valid reason.
