Asexual reproduction : here the parent cell reproduces to form exact replica of itself. So, chromosomal number is maintained as both the parent and daughter cells have same number of chromosomes.
Sexual reproduction : It involves fusion of two kinds of gametes to form the offspring. Hence to maintain a stable chromosomal number, the number of chromosomes is halved during the formation of gametes . So, on fusion of two gametes we get the same chromosomal number as that of the parent.
So, these ensure that the chromosomal number or the DNA of an organism is stable.
