Highlight the claim. A common type of asexual reproduction found in nature is called Mitosis. Mitosis requires less energy than sexual reproduction does. Mitosis can
occur in seconds and does not require a mate to reproduce. Sexual reproduction requires two compatible parents. It also requires time to produce
the egg and sperm cells and then for fertilization to occur. Energy is required to find a compatible mate, produce sex cells, and for fertilization
Therefore Mitosis requires less energy than sexual reproduction does.
