Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction which involves a single parent. The offsprings are genetically identical to each other and to the parent. All prokaryotes and some eukaryotes reproduce this way. Sexual reproduction involves two parents. In sexual reproduction, parents produce reproductive cells—called gametes—that unite to form an offspring. Sexual reproduction is by far the most common life cycle in eukaryotes, for example, animals and plants.
Thus, the correct option is 'Asexual, sexual, sexual.'
