Modes of reproduction Advantages: Advantages:
(advantages,  The reproduction is faster since it  It creates variation of the offspring
disadvantages) doesn’t involve gamete formation. which adapts an environment for a
 There is only one parent therefore chance of survival.
cloning is easier.  It increases genetic diversity
 It can reproduce its own by just  It produces new organism
growing a part of it.
Disadvantages:
 Due to single parent cloning, they
can transmit each other in terms of Disadvantages:
