Differences between sexual and asexual reproduction:

Asexual reproduction

Sexual reproduction

It requires only one parent.

It requires two parents.

In asexual reproduction, newly developed plants are identical to the parent and to each other.

In sexual reproduction, newly developed plants are not identical to parents.

Special reproductive parts are not required for asexual reproduction.

Flower is the reproductive part of a plant which contains the sexual organs of a plant. These are important for sexual reproduction.

Examples are yeast, rose, jasmine, potato, etc.

Examples are flowering plants, such as Hibiscus, corn, papaya, etc.
