If the world suffered a huge catastrophic event (an event causing great and often sudden damage or suffering; a disaster) that wiped out almost all the organisms. Who would have the best chance of repopulation the world with living organisms, an asexual reproducing organism or a sexually reproducing organism? Explain your answer.

An asexually reproducing organism would have the best chance of repopulating the world.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is a method of reproduction that involves two parents and the formation and subsequent fusion of male and female gametes during fertilization. On the other hand, In asexual reproduction, only one parent is involved and produces offspring by making copies of itself through various methods such as binary fusion, budding and vegetatively.

In a case of a catastrophic event that wiped out almost all organisms, an organism that reproduces asexually have a greater chance of repopulating the world because of the following advantages in reproducing asexually:

1. Only one parent is needed, therefore reproduction is easier.

2. It isaves time and energy. Since almost all organisms have been wiped out, there is a lesser likelihood of finding a compatible mate, so reproducing asexually will give the organism a better chance.

3. It occurs at a very fast rate; much faster than sexual reproduction

4. The population can increase very quickly and colonization of new habitats is much easier.

All these advantages will give the esexually reproducig organism a fairer chance to repopulate the world.

b. accuracy of the data matters alot more than its number of digits, organization or amount of detail. quantitative observation is more accepted than the qualitative observation.
