as in sexual reproduction a female gamete fuse with a male gamete which are haploid to form diploid zygote. so both contributes equal amount of chromosomes.hence there will be equal contribution of male and female parents ensured in the progeny

How is the equal genetic contribution of male and female parents ensured in the progeny?

During the formation of gametes as a result of reductional division (meiosis), sperms - XY & eggs - XX receive only single genome of a parent.

When fertilization occurs, one genome each from sperm & egg reaches the zygote.

It means both male & female parents contribute exactly equal amount of genetic material to the offspring.
