The correct options are
A It requires gametes
B Fertilisation is a compulsory event
C Results in the formation of zygote

Fertilisation is the fusion of the male and the female gametes. It gives rise to zygote.

Zygote develops into an embryo which gets embedded in the mother's uterus.

Sexual reproduction results in the formation of new offsprings which have similarities and differences (variations) from both the parents.

Clones are identical (genetically) to the parent organism and are formed in case of asexual reproduction.
