Solution

the main difference between sexual and asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction just means combining genetic material from two parents. Asexual reproduction produces offspring genetically identical to the one parent.

Animals use both sexual and asexual modes of reproduction. For example, hydra reproduces through budding and amoeba reproduces through binary fission. These are asexual modes of reproduction. On the other hand, human beings, dogs, fishes, birds, etc. reproduce through sexual means.
