During its life cycle, fern plant goes through different phases in which it changes from reproducing asexually to reproducing sexually. Which statement best describes the difference? A. The sexual phase can produce variations within the species

B. The sexual phase produces offspring that look identical

C. The asexual phase allows the plant to better tolerate harsh conditions

D. The asexual phase provides better variation of plants

A.) The sexual phase can produce variations within the species

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction allows for the mixing of genes which creates variation.  Since asexual reproduction just involves one cell, the daughter cells will be identical to the parent. Thus, no variation is created.
