Why does asexual reproduction produce offspring with less diversity and therefore LESS chance of adapting to its environment​

Sexual reproduction provides genetic diversity because the sperm and egg that are produced contain different combinations of genes than the parent organisms. Asexual reproduction, on the other hand, does not need sperm and eggs since one organism splits into two organisms that have the same combination of genes.

Explanation:

With asexual reproduction rather then there being two parents there is one. So the offspring is just a clone of the singular parent. This means there isn't a second set of genes or dna to mix into the child which would create changes and adaptions by inheritance. Though since there is one parent it is a clone of the first with nothing to inherit so it can't adapt as it only has the one set of genes instead of two.
