Solution
| Asexual reproduction | Sexual reproduction | ||
| 1 | Reproduction that occurs with the help of somatic cells is called as asexual reproduction. | 1 | Reproduction that occurs with the help of germ cells is called sexual reproduction. |
| 2 | Both the parents are not required for asexual reproduction. It is uniparental reproduction. |
2 | Male and female parent are necessary for sexual reproduction. |
| 3 | This reproduction occurs with the help of mitosis only. | 3 | This reproduction occurs with the help of both meiosis and mitosis. |
| 4 | New individual formed by this method is genetically identical to parents. | 4 | New individual formed by this method is genetically different from parents. |
| 5 | Asexual reproduction occurs in different individuals by various methods like binary fission, multiple fission, budding, fragmentation, regeneration, vegetative propagation, spore production, etc. | 5 | Sexual reproduction occurs in various organisms like microbes, plants, animals and humans. It involves two main processes- gamete formation and fertilization. |
