Individuals reproducing asexually transmit 100% of their genes to their progeny, whereas individuals reproducing sexually transmit only 50%.
Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the patents, whereas sexual reproduction gives rise to genetically distinct offspring.
Asexual reproduction involves a single parent, whereas sexual reproduction involves two.
Asexual reproduction requires only mitosis, whereas sexual reproduction always involves meiosis.
Asexual reproduction is utilized only by fungi and protists, whereas sexual reproduction is utilized only by plants and animals.
Recombinants are usually selected against.
Non-recombinant organisms are usually favored by natural selection if there is environmental change.
Most recombinants reproduce less frequently than do non-recombinants.
Recombinants may have combinations of traits that are favored by natural selection.
Recombination does not affect natural selection.
