Best Answer

Sexual Reproduction is the process by which a new organism develops from joining of male and female sex cells (sperm and ova respectively). An organism that reproduces sexually requires a partner, with the offspring sharing characteristics from each parent.

Examples include mammals, most reptiles, and flowering plants.

Asexual Reproduction is the process by which a single organism produces a new organism identical to itself. An asexually reproducing organism does not require a partner to produce offspring.

Examples include bacteria, nonflowering plants and some reptiles.
