Adesert plant called kalanchoe can reproduce, either with sexual reproduction through flowers, or asexually by budding off miniature leaf and root clusters from its leaves. when buds are produced, they land on the ground, take root, and grow, genetically identical to the original. if budding is used for several years, a large area may be covered with these descendents from the same original plant. the resulting population of plants will

The resulting population of plants will be identical. This is a type of asexual reproduction in which there is no genetic recombination, this can become a disadvantage in the population for example at the time when a disease appears and the population does not have disease-resistant genes, the population may disappear completely.

however, by this reproduction the plants have the advantage of being able to expand widely in the ecosystem

i believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. the scientists need to look at the   validity of data, claims, hypotheses, and observations before  developing an argument. they base their arguments on facts that are present and they make sure they have proofs.
