Abstract

Sex is the sole physiological mechanism to reshuffle the genes within a species. Although sex is widely observed among living organisms, and although its importance for the continuity of life is well accepted, it has been an enigma in Evolutionary Biology. This paper presents a view of a biologist on the living world in relation to the sex and reproduction.
