Answer:Option D

Explanation:

The continuity of organism on Earth is maintained by the process of reproduction. There are two modes of reproduction. One is sexual reproduction and other is a sexual reproduction.

The asexual reproduction is the process by which identical progeny is produced by single parent. There is no need for two parent.

In case of sexual reproduction the offspring produced is not the exact copy of the parents they show variation. This variation in the offspring provides stability to the organism.
