Solution

The correct option is D No fertilisation
In sexual reproduction, one male gamete and one female gamete fuse to form the zygote and this process is called fertilisation. The zygote undergoes several cell divisions to form a new individual. The new individuals (offsprings) formed are genetically and morphologically different from the parents.. Hence, sexual reproduction accounts for variation.
