What advantages are given to animals and plants by asexual reproduction?

I suppose this kind of reproduction have following advantages:
1.The heredity of the seedling is basically the same as that of the mother plant, which can maintain the excellent traits of the mother parent with little variation.
2.As the development of new strain is based on the mother plant, it can accelerate it's growth, avoid the long period of physiological (developmental) stage, flowering and getting  the results early.
3.For some plants, if they are not easy to fruiting or produce seeds, asexual reproduction is conducive to the conservation of germplasm.

Schools are being forced to embrace computers. unlike their "digital immigrant" teachers, these students are "digital natives", born into a world where technology is an integral part of everyday life. almost every student has access to a multitude of computers, laptops and tablet devices. it would be crazy to assume an assignment would  notbe written on computer in this day and age.many schools now have a 1-to-1 computer policy, and many districts and states in the united states have mandated computers or ipads across the state for every student,  including los angeles, the second largest school district in the country.but the thing is, when they tried it in la, it wasn't the success they hoped for. that's because the tablets weren't used as much as they expected. rather, it appeared there was a gap between the digital native's love of technology and their use of it in the classroom.this conflicted relationship with computers is also underscored by much of the literature on education. it is also highlighted in professional development and conferences such as  edutech.
