Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The sexual reproduction brings about variation through genetic recombination first of all genetic recombination occurs in non-homologous chromosomes during crossing over of pachytene stage in meiotic cell division.
Secondly, the random union of gametes also contributes in forming new combinations of characters. in the formation of progenies with new variations.
Vegetative reproduction occurs through vegetative parts of organisms (plants). without fertilisation (e.g.frog).
