Reproduction through spores is a type of asexual reproduction. It has several benefits, they are as listed below:

  • Spore reproduction is quick and multiplies many at once, hence the population will increase and survival chances are high.
  • They remain dormant till favourable conditions are available.
  • As they are light, they can be carried by wind and hence can start growing in different regions.
  • They possess thick walls which enables them to survive even in unfavourable conditions.
  • As it is an asexual form of reproduction, there is no error in the copies of new entities produced, hence parental characters are not lost.
  • They assist the entity to tide over the bad phase.
