Which of the following statements is false about why sexual reproduction would be beneficial to a population but can be detrimental to an individual offspring? Select one or more:
A. Sexual reproduction increases the genetic variation within the population since new individuals are made by randomly combining genetic material from two parents.
B. There is always a possibility that the random combination creating the offspring's genome will actually produce an organism less fit for the environment than the parents were.
C. Since only fit individuals reach sexual maturity and reproduce, the overall population tends toward increasing fitness in its environment.
D. All of the stages of meiosis II have the same events as the stages of mitosis, with the possible exception of prophase II. In all species, the chromosomes are still condensed and there is no nuclear envelope.
