In contrast to asexual reproduction, sexual reproduction (a) is a faster way to produce offspring (b) is more efficient (c) results in more offspring (d) is less efficient at removing harmful mutations from a population (e) increases genetic variety among members of a population
Consider all of the species on earth. Some scientists believe that the genes for growth and reproduction have been under evolutionary forces for longer than those involved in maintenance and repair. Which statement below best supports their theory?
a. Most species die after producing offspring.
b. “Survival of the fittest” is true.
c. Most animal species mate for life.
d. Only the more intelligent organisms live long lives.
