One disadvantage of the sponge's method of reproduction is that
A.
its offspring have little genetic diversity.
B.
it requires more energy.
C.
its offspring have greater genetic diversity.
D.

Answer:

A. its offspring have little genetic diversity.

Explanation:

Unlike the ladybug who needs a mate, the sponge reproduces by itself. This means the new sponge offspring usually do not differ much from the parent, as most of its genes will come from there and will not come from two parents 'mixed' together. This means not much varieties of sponge offspring would come from the same parent.
