Detailed explanation-3: -Transfer of genetic material between parents and progeny resulting in some resemblance between each other is the common feature in both asexual and sexual reproduction. Gametic fusion and reduction division takes place in sexual reproduction only.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sexual reproduction is the type of reproduction that involves the fusion of gametes from the male and female organism. The gametes fuse to form a zygote which develops into a embryo, which later develops into a new organism.
