Many people complain about the human reproductive process. Why is it so troublesome? Wouldn’t it be better to reproduce separately?

Just like bacteria, just split into two.

So, why don’t we choose asexual reproduction?

But what is the scientific reason behind insisting on the mating of men and women?

1. Sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction.

Everyone should be familiar with sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction. There are many creatures around us that use these two methods to reproduce.

Everyone should be interested in sexual reproduction, after all, it is an indispensable step for us humans to reproduce the next generation.

It is this way that allows us to pass it on from generation to generation. It is also because of this that we think about why we choose sexual reproduction?

Rather than imitating the asexual reproduction method of bacteria, after all, the former is much more complicated.

You must know that bacteria and other microorganisms only need to divide, one into two, two into four, and so on, and they can multiply rapidly.

Sexual reproduction is much more troublesome and, to be honest, not that efficient.

But it is this way that allows us humans to become the strongest species on earth and also makes our lives more colorful.

Blindness seems simple. It only requires one individual. It is not that particular and does not require mating and reproduction.

From this point of view alone, asexual reproduction is the best choice.

However, after in-depth research, scientists found that this method also has shortcomings and limitations. The most troublesome one is genetic variation.

It is precisely because of this that sexual reproduction has meaning. It can genetically mutate faster, adapt to changing environments, and of course, avoid harmful effects. accumulation of genes.

From this point of view, sexual reproduction is undoubtedly the best choice, but it is not a perfect reproduction method. After all, each has its own benefits.

From a human perspective, should we choose sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction?

This depends on the pros and cons of the two reproduction methods.

Human beings, as highly intelligent creatures on earth, face many more problems than other creatures.

Of course, the most important thing is to understand the specific meaning of the two methods, so that we can better understand why humans need to mate with men to reproduce.

After all, although sexual reproduction is good, it is also an indisputable fact that it is cumbersome. Compared with asexual reproduction, it is much more troublesome.

2. Why is sexual reproduction so important?

As a high school graduate, we all know that there is a saying in biology textbooks that asexual reproduction is simple and efficient. Why does sexual reproduction dominate the earth?

So this sentence also made many students start to question why our reproductive methods are so troublesome?

This question is very good, but in the process of assimilation, people directly deny the human reproductive method, which is not always a good thing. From another perspective, how important the human reproductive method is.

So what are the advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction?

To put it simply, asexual reproduction is nothing more than replication and asexual cell division. Just like bacteria, new bacteria will be born as they continue to divide.

Simple, fast, saves time and effort, and doesn’t require much attention.

But precisely because of this shortcoming, its living environment will be relatively narrow.

Simply put, there is no difference between the offspring of this method and the parent generation. They will not mutate due to changes in the environment. When the environment is not suitable, the offspring will perish. situation.

Of course, it cannot be said that asexual reproduction is not adapted to the environment. Everything is surrounded by an environment. It still has this environment, but it is obviously not as capable of adapting to the environment as sexual reproduction.

What are the benefits of sexual reproduction?

Someone asked, can it be said that only mutation can prove the importance of this method of reproduction?

Of course not.

In fact, the most important point of sexual reproduction is mutation and the advantages brought by mutation.

The offspring of asexual reproduction are exactly the same as their parents and will not have any mutations. That is to say, they do not have somatic cells without any advantages. This is basically the case.

But sexual reproduction is different.

The combination of genes gives offspring more possibilities. Of course, this does not mean that the offspring will be stronger than the parents, but relatively speaking, it will definitely have its advantages and characteristics.

Why is sexual reproduction so valued and respected?

Because this method can enable future generations to have stronger ability to adapt to the environment, allowing biological species to survive in this cruel cycle of nature.

Sexual reproduction can not only increase variation, but also quickly increase the population. It will not be limited to a specific environment and has a larger living space.

This is why, although sexual reproduction is cumbersome and complicated and not as efficient as asexual reproduction, it can still occupy a dominant position in the nature of the earth.

3. Why must a man and a woman mate in order to have children?

In fact, sexual reproduction existed on the earth as early as 150 million years ago. It seems that the issue of men and women is not that important. Ordinary individuals can complete sexual reproduction. , so why can’t humans?

This may have to be viewed from an evolutionary perspective.

We all know that a long time ago, we humans were like orangutans, an ancient primate that also reproduced sexually.

But as the earth changed dramatically in prehistoric times, the weather became more and more arid, the environment became more and more harsh, and natural selection also changed.

In such an environment, it is really difficult for animals to survive. Only through continuous evolution can they adapt to the environment and survive.

The cruelest thing about nature is that no one can guarantee that the offspring you breed will become more powerful.

Human beings at that time also faced such problems.

In order for humans to go further and evolve more powerful offspring, the inevitable result of evolution is sexual reproduction, and they must reproduce separately.

In fact, when humans were first initialized, there were no obvious gender differences between men and women. However, with the development of evolution, these two genders still cannot escape this problem and must change. Become distinctly male and female.

It is precisely for this reason that humans can continue to reproduce offspring, and in order to avoid the inheritance of the same gene, further increase genetic diversity and make offspring more powerful.

When human intelligence evolves, this issue has reached a more critical moment, that is, how to enable Homo sapiens to breed more powerful offspring.

In order to make products more diverse and more likely to have excellent genes, is it just a matter of random selection?

Of course not, proper control is still needed. It is not that we are contradictory, but this also explains from the side why the diversity of species is so important to living things.

Just like there are grasses and weeds in a prosperous grassland, the same is true in nature, there are good and bad.

You must know that in certain environments, species can determine the fate of species. When the environment changes and nature survives the most difficult moments, better species will evolve and stronger populations will be bred.

The author thinks.

So why do people have such a complicated reproductive system?

This is the result of evolution. In order for us humans to go further, it is also an evolution that makes the creatures on the earth more diverse. It is also out of respect for the biodiversity of the earth\’s biodiversity. .

And it can also add more joy to life for these species.

Humans have chosen this approach from the beginning, not necessarily because it is better.

But under this special evolutionary process, it also represents the possible direction of future evolution.

Coincidentally, the same is true in nature, which continues to evolve and evolve. Finally, after countless polishings, it presents the diverse ecosystem we see now, which is also a colorful natural art.
