The biological role of the sexual type of reproduction?

Sexual reproduction appeared much later than asexual. But it has an important role in the evolutionary process and in the process of the emergence of new species. This is due to the fact that during asexual reproduction, the same set of DNA is transferred from the parent organism to the new one. In fact, the body reproduces itself. During sexual reproduction, the DNA of two organisms is mixed and a new organism with unique DNA is obtained. Therefore, many mutations appeared, useful adaptations were passed on to offspring, and so on.
