In all organisms sexual reproduction occurs in a similar pattern. It involves the fusion of a male gamete and a female gamete to form a new organism in a process termed fertilisation. Typically, males produce more gametes when compared to females. This form of reproduction is an elaborate, complex and slow process. The gametes formed are genetically unique and thus the offspring produced are not identical to each other or to their parents.
