The amount of DNA remains constant because meiosis in the cells produces gametes. The gametes are a special type of cells called reproductive cells which contain only half the amount of DNA as compared to the normal body cells of an organism.

Answer:
The amount of DNA remains the same during sexual reproduction because of the fusion of gametes.
Explanation:
The amount of DNA remains the same during sexual reproduction because:
- In organisms undergoing sexual reproduction, the total amount chromosomes are given by 2n.
- All the genes contain 2n chromosomes, however, gametes only contain n chromosomes.
- During sexual reproduction gametes from the male and female parent combines to form a zygote. Since the zygote is formed due to fusion it contains the '2n' chromosome.
