In the given question both the statements are correct and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion
- Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction that ensures a higher rate of survival of the progenies.
- This happens because, the male and female gamete of the parents during formation, undergoes a process known as recombination, which provides each gamete with a unique set of chromosomes.
- The fusion of the gametes causes the mixing of genetic material from both the parents that have undergone recombination, thus making the offspring genetically competent to face adverse situations and survive.
Thus, (Option a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation for A is the answer for the given question.
