sexual reproduction, asexual reproduction
Sexual reproduction just means combining genetic material from two parents. Asexual reproduction produces offspring genetically identical to the one parent.
Other plants can reproduce by the asexual process called fragmentation (breaking apart). The remainder of plants reproduce sexually (offspring with parents from each sex) by releasing gametes (reproductive cells). Male reproductive cells are called sperm and female reproductive cells are called eggs
Asexual reproduction in animals occurs through fission, budding, fragmentation, and parthenogenesis. Sexual reproduction may involve fertilization inside the body or in the external environment. ... Sexual reproduction starts with the combination of a sperm and an egg in a process called fertilization.
Reproduction is the process by which new individuals are produced by the parents. The process of reproduction ensures that a plant or animal species does not disappear from Earth. This process is very important in maintaining stability in the ecosystem and for the continuation of life on earth.
Fertilization: The process of combining the male gamete, or sperm, with the female gamete, or ovum. The product of fertilization is a cell called a zygote.
The similarity between internal fertilization and external fertilization is that the sperm fuses with the egg cell to form a zygote. The dissimilarity is that in internal fertilization, the fusion occurs inside the body of the organism while in external fertilization, the fusion occurs outside the body of the organism
