Question

male and female whales practice mating behaviors to form offspring. male and female whales cooperate with each other to fertilize egg cells. what form of reproduction is occurring? sexual reproduction through random fertilization asexual reproduction through random fertilization sexual reproduction through internal fertilization asexual reproduction through external fertilization

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reproduction types

Sexual reproduction involves two parents (male and female here). Asexual has one parent. So eliminate asexual options.

Whales are mammals. Mammals (like whales) typically have internal fertilization (not random which is vague and not a standard term here compared to internal).

Answer:

sexual reproduction through internal fertilization
