The continuation of life depends on both sexual and asexual reproduction.
Reproduction is a process where an organism gives rise to another organism, often called as "offspring". Its a process of increasing the population of any species on Earth. There are two types of reproduction process-
1. Asexual- where exact copies of parent organism are formed, also only single parent is involved.
2. Sexual- Two parents of opposite sexes are involved, offsprings are not identical to parents. There is scope of variation in sexual reproduction.
