Unicellular organisms, e.g. bacteria reproduced by binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction. New daughter cells obtained by binary fission have the same characteristics as their parents cells.
In the multicellular organisms, gametes are produced. The fusion of the two different gametes results in a combination of generic material in the offspring. Therefore, new cells formed from sexual reproduction do not have the same characteristics as their parents.
