Reproduction and Cell Division

How are sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction different from each other? 

• Sexual reproduction requires two parents and asexual reproduction requires only one parent.
• Asexual reproduction requires two parents and sexual reproduction requires only one parent.
• Mutation rates are lower in sexual reproduction than in asexual reproduction 
• Asexual reproduction occurs only in multicellular organisms
