I gave my students this multiple choice question: Which of the following is the primary advantage of sexual reproduction when compared to asexual reproduction?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- There is a greater number of offspring.
- There is more food available to offspring.
- There is greater genetic variety in offspring.
- There is a longer development time for offspring.

Could you tell me which one is correct?

There is greater genetic variety in offspring.
