Which type of reproduction:
(a) involves gametes?
(b) does not involve gametes?
(a) Sexual reproduction involves gametes.
(b) Asexual reproduction does not involve gametes.
[Extra information for reference:
(1). Sexual Reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote. This process of fusion of gametes is known as fertilization. The offspring receives genetic information from both the parents.
(2). Asexual Reproduction does not involve the fusion of male and female reproductive parts or gametes. Plants give rise to the new plant by the method of vegetative propagation or budding or fragmentation.
The new plant formed from asexual reproduction cannot produce fruits and seeds.]
