Final answer:

Asexual reproduction lacks genetic diversity mechanisms, while sexual reproduction allows for genetic trait recombination.


Explanation:

Asexual reproduction lacks mechanisms for generating genetic diversity within a population, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. In contrast, sexual reproduction allows for the recombination of genetic traits, increasing the odds of developing new adaptations better suited to a changed environment.
