Which of the following statements is true regarding sexual reproduction in organisms?
-
It involves the fusion of gametes from two parents, resulting in offspring with genetic variation
- It involves the production of offspring through a single parent, resulting in genetically identical offspring
- It is a form of asexual reproduction where offspring are produced without the involvement of gametes
- It does not involve the formation of gametes or the fusion of reproductive cells
The correct answer is: A

The statement that is true regarding sexual reproduction in organisms is that it involves the fusion of gametes from two parents, resulting in offspring with genetic variation. Sexual reproduction involves the production of haploid gametes (sperm and eggs) by two parents, which then fuse during fertilization to form a genetically diverse offspring.
