3. Explain how the process of sexual reproduction in animals is?

Sexual reproduction is the production of a new organism from two parents

by making use of their sex cells or gametes. In this process male gametes
fuses with a female gamete to form a new cell called 'zygote'. This zygote
then grows and develops in to a new organism in due course of time
