Asexual reproduction is a reproduction process with only one parent that ends with identical animal cells. The purpose of asexual reproduction is to reproduce with wasting less energy. Sexual reproduction is a reproduction process with two parents that ends up with unidentical animal cells. Sexual reproduction is used to reproduce and make a unique being. The animal I am focusing on is the red kangaroo. The red kangaroo uses sexual reproduction. This chosen type of reproduction is a good choice because kangaroos are very strong and don't fight unless it's for mating or for territory. As well as this, the females have a pouch to safely raise the joeys in. Joeys are the baby kangaroo. “This happens up to three times a year” (University of Utah,

The red kangaroo uses sexual reproduction instead of asexual reproduction because it can’t use asexual reproduction. “The red kangaroo is wildly found in the Australian Outback” (University of Utah, Reproductive Strategies). It is also found in zoos around the world. “The red kangaroo is the largest living marsupial in the world” (University of Utah, Reproductive Strategies) . It is brown and looks like an oversized rabbit. Coincidently, as well as looking like a rabbit, it also can jump very far too. “It can jump up to 12 feet in one jump and run up to speeds of 34.8 miles per hour” (University of Utah, Reproductive Strategies).

This is beneficial because the stronger male will win and this causes the offspring to be stronger and have a greater chance of surviving childhood as well. Sexual reproduction is more beneficial than asexual reproduction. “This is because it makes everything unique, chance of evolution, and you don’t receive diseases from parents like you do in asexual reproduction” (Pros and Cons of Sexual and Asexual Reproduction). There are many disadvantages of asexual reproduction for all animals. For one, “You make exact replicas of yourself instead of becoming a unique organism” (Pros and Cons of Sexual and Asexual Reproduction). “As well as this, you will have almost no chance of evolution; whereas, during sexual reproduction there is a great chance of evolution to take place” (Pros and cons of sexual and asexual
