The genetic diversity of sexually produced offspring is thought to give species a better chance of surviving in an unpredictable or changing environment. Species that reproduce sexually must maintain two different types of individuals, males and females, which can limit the ability to colonize new habitats as both sexes must be present.

Plants that use insects or other animals to move pollen from one flower to the next have developed greatly modified flower parts to attract pollinators and to facilitate the movement of pollen from one flower to the insect and from the insect back to the next flower.

Scientists call such organisms members of the same biological species.

It notes commercial techniques such as grafting and apomixis that preserve traits. In contrast, sexual reproduction promotes genetic diversity, enhancing adaptability and resilience against environmental changes and parasites, which is illustrated through studies on organisms like C. elegans.

It highlights the "One Gene - One Enzyme" theory proposed by Beadle and Tatum, established through UV-induced mutations, which posits that each gene corresponds to a specific enzyme. This theory has since evolved to include all proteins produced by genes across organisms.
