What is sexual reproduction ? Explain the two main processes involved in sexual reproduction.

Explanation

Sexual reproduction `:`
It is a process of reproduction in which two parents are involved to produce off springs by fusion of a male and a female gamete.
Two main processes involved in sexual reproduction.
Gamete formation `:` In this, meiotic division occurs due to which chromosome number is reduced to half. As a result, haploid gametes are formed ( `2n rarr n ) `.
Fertilization `:` Haploid male gamete ( n ) fuses with haploid female gamete ( n ) to form diploid zygote ( 2n ).
