Reproduction that requires two organisms, a male and a female.[1] In sexual-reproduction the male and female combine their genetic material to make a new cell which has about half the genes of each parent. Many speces reproduce sexually, such as humans, while some species (such as many plants) can reproduce either sexually or asexually.
