What is a disadvantage for organisms that reproduce asexually rather than sexually?

A disadvantage is that sexual reproduction takes longer than asexual reproduction. A mate must be found, the egg must be fertilized by sperm, and then the offspring develop. The benefit of introducing genetic variation into the species, however, outweighs this disadvantage.

Explanation:

the peripheral nervous system or pns contains the nerves, which leave the brain and the spinal cord and travel to certain areas of the body. the peripheral nervous system's main job is to send information gathered by the body's sensory receptors to the cns as quickly as possible.
