What evolutionary advantages does sexual reproduction give to living organisms?

With asexual reproduction, hereditary characteristics do not change from generation to generation. The genotype of the offspring can change only with a random mutation, but even so, the variability will be insignificant.

During sexual reproduction, each emerging organism has an individual genotype. With such reproduction, the properties of the parents are combined so that the variability increases. Thus, during sexual reproduction, the adaptive capabilities are higher than during asexual reproduction, and the rate of evolution increases significantly.
