Reproduction is the biological process of producing offspring of the same kind. It is one of the essential processes that help the species continue, generation after generation.
There are two distinct types of reproduction:
Sexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction.
Sexual reproduction includes the fusion of male and female gametes that are produced inside the male and female reproductive parts, respectively.
Asexual reproduction does not involve the fusion of male and female gametes. Only one parent is involved, and the offspring produced is genetically identical to the parent.
