Answer: The correct answer is (c) (i), (ii) and (iii)

Solution: Sexual reproduction is the process in which two parents i.e., male and female are involved. Male produces male gamete while female produces female gamete. During fertilization, the male and female gamete fuse to form the zygote. Reproduction is necessary for the continuation of the species. The offspring resulting from asexual reproduction are identical to the parents and are called clones. Hence, (c) is the correct option.
