Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Half of the genetic information (50%) from each parent is passed down to their offspring during sexual reproduction. This occurs through the formation of haploid gametes (sperm and egg cells) which combine during fertilization to form a diploid zygote with a unique combination of genetic material.
