Solution

1. Reproduction that occurs with the help of germ cells is called sexual reproduction.
2. Both the parents are not required for asexual reproduction. It is uniparental reproduction.
3. This reproduction occurs with the help of both meiosis and mitosis.
4.New individual formed by this method is genetically identical to their parents.
5. Sexual reproduction occurs in various organisms like microbes, plants, animals, and humans. It involves two main processes- gamete formation and fertilization.
