Asexual reproduction increases biodiversity?

Question

True or false

Answer 1

False. Asexual reproduction means an individual is producing other individuals, or "offspring", by copying its own genetic material.  Thus, no mixing of the genetic material as is seen in sexual reproduction.  The only way for diversity to really increase when asexual reproduction is the primary means of reproduction is by mutation.

Answer 2

False

gametes combine to mix up DNA to newer combinations which may be more successful than the previous generation (or not)
