Modes of Reproduction: Asexual and Sexual · NCERT Biology

Sexual reproduction is considered a more complex and slower process compared to asexual reproduction because:

  1. It involves only a single parent and no gamete fusion
  2. It involves fusion of male and female gametes
  3. Offspring produced are identical to their parents
  4. It occurs only in unicellular organisms exclusively
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: It involves fusion of male and female gametes

Sexual reproduction involves the formation and fusion of gametes, leading to genetic variation. This complexity requires more time and energy than simple mitotic division.
