Solution

The steps involved in sexual reproduction in human beings are as follows:
  • The two parents involved in the reproduction produce certain specialised cells in their body. These are the reproductive cells, also known as the gametes.
  • The male produces the male gametes called sperms whereas the female produces the female gametes called eggs.
  • The sperm and the egg come together and fuse to form a single celled zygote and this process of fusion is known as fertilisation.
  • This zygote grows and develops and becomes a young baby and this young baby grows into an adult and the whole process continues.
