Producing new ==Key Stage 3=====Meaning==='''Sexual reproduction''' is when two parents are need to produce [[offspring]]. ==Key Stage 4=====Meaning==='''Sexual reproduction''' is when two parent [[organism]]s share [[DNA]] to produce [[offspring]]. ===About Sexual Reproduction===: '''Sexual reproduction''' begins with the production of [[gamete]]s which are [[haploid]] [[OrganismCell (Biology)|organismscells]]. These [[gamete]]s are produced by [[meiosis]].: In '''sexual reproduction''' [[gamete]]s from each parent fuse together in [[fertilisation]] to produce a [[diploid]] using [[Sex Cell(Biology)|sex cellscell]] which is a new [[organism]].: '''Sexual reproduction''' results in [[offspring]] that are [[genetically]] different from two each parent.: [[Species]] which engage in '''sexual reproduction''' have large genetic [[variation]] within the [[population]]. This provides an advantage for the [[species]] survival as it produces more [[organism]]s which a chance of surviving a change in the environment.: '''Sexual reproduction''' takes longer than [[ParentAsexual Reproduction|parentsasexual reproduction]] because parent [[organism]]s have to find one another and then engage in [[intercourse]].
