Question

To reproduce, female elephants produce eggs and male elephants produce sperm. Offspring are produced by the fusion of an egg with a sperm cell. Which statement is true about the offspring?

Answer 1

Is this a multiple-choice question? If not, it's sexual reproduction. This is because as opposed to asexual reproduction, indicates that the propagation of a species involves male and female gametes. It is the main method of reproduction of multicellular organisms. In the first stage of sexual reproduction, meiosis, the number of chromosomes is reduced from a diploid number (2n) to a haploid number (n). During fertilization ("fertilization"), haploid gametes come together to form a diploid zygote and restore the initial number of chromosomes (2n).
