(N/A)

Asexual reproduction	Sexual reproduction
$(a)$ Involves only one parent.	$(i)$ Involves two parents of opposite sex.
$(b)$ Gametes are not produced.	$(ii)$ Gametes are produced.
$(c)$ No fertilization and zygote formation occurs.	$(iii)$ Fertilization and zygote formation are observed.
$(d)$ Meiosis does not occur.	$(iv)$ Meiosis occurs during gamete formation.

During sexual reproduction,two types of gametes fuse. Although the gametes contain the same number of chromosomes,their $DNA$ is not identical due to the process of recombination during meiosis. This genetic shuffling generates variations among the offspring.

Write two points of difference between asexual and sexual types of reproduction. Describe why variations are observed in the offspring formed by sexual reproduction.
