What type of reproduction is sexual reproduction?

  1. Asexual

  2. Environmental

  3. Gametic

  4. Budding

The correct answer is: Gametic

Sexual reproduction is a method of reproduction involving the fusion of two gametes (sperm and egg) from two parents to produce offspring. In contrast, asexual reproduction involves only one parent, and the offspring are genetically identical to the parent. B and D are incorrect because they both refer to forms of asexual reproduction. Environmental reproduction is not a recognized method of reproduction. C, gametic reproduction, is the correct answer as it specifically refers to the type of reproduction involving the fusion of gametes.
