When discussing how reproduction aids in survival and evolution, 2 students are arguing about the advantages and disadvantages of each Student one argues that because sexual reproduction leads to greater diversity, and therefore more opportunities for natural selection, organisms that reproduce asexually
will eventually go extinct. Student 2 disagrees and argues that asexual organisms will not go extinct. Which argument below will best support Student 2's
stance?
• A. Organisms that reproduce asexually still have opportunities for genetic diversity through processes such as crossing over
OB. Organisms that reproduce asexually can better learn from the environments and acquire traits need for survival
Oc Organisms that reproduce asexually still have opportunities for genetic diversity through processes such as random mutations,
OD. Organisms that reproduce asexually take more time to reproduce, thus ensuring the traits for survival are optimal for survival
