Why is the role of sexual reproduction so important in the evolution of the living world?

Sexual reproduction is of great biological importance. With sexual reproduction, offspring is obtained as a result of the fusion of the genetic material of the haploid nuclei, which are located in the reproductive cells (gametes). During meiosis (the formation of gametes) and the exchange of genetic material, new combinations of genes appear in one gamete, which increases genetic diversity. The union of two sets of chromosomes (during sexual reproduction) is the genetic basis for intraspecific variability. Therefore, sexual reproduction plays an important role in the evolution of living organisms.
