Study Notes
- Reproduction in organisms requires the transmission of genetic information from one parent to their offspring.
- Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes, which results in the production of genetically unique offspring. Asexual reproduction involves the production of genetically identical offspring by a single parent.
