Asexual: One parent cell divides in two to create two new 'daughter cells', there is only 1 parent involved to reproduce
Sexual: Two partners are required and is the process of which a male gamete sperm fertilizes with the females ova
If i wrote these definitions in a test would they be correct?
Thankyou!

Would they be correct? Depends on the level (9th grade, 10th grade, etc.) and the teacher.
Asexual reproduction can include more than just a single cell. For example, some planarians can reproduce by fragmentation, where they quite literally pull themselves into two parts, and then in each half the missing half is regenerated. It might be better to stick with just the last part of your definition.
Sexual reproduction does not need to involved sperm and ova specifically - better to just call them gametes.
