Detailed explanation-1: -Sexual reproduction involves two parents and produces offspring that are genetically unique. During sexual reproduction, two haploid gametes join in the process of fertilization to produce a diploid zygote. Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces gametes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sexual reproduction requires two parents. Each parent contributes a gamete-a sex cell that has half of the normal DNA of a regular body cell. In males, the gametes are sperm and in females, the gametes are eggs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Reproduction (or procreation or breeding) is the biological process by which new individual organisms – “offspring” – are produced from their “parent” or parents. Reproduction is a fundamental feature of all known life; each individual organism exists as the result of reproduction.

Detailed explanation-4: -The process by which an organism produces offspring is called reproduction. Reproduction can be defined as a biological process in which an organism gives rise to its offspring. It involves the transfer of genetic material from one generation to the next which ensures the continuity of life on Earth.
