Function of Reproduction
Function of Reproduction
Reproduction is the creation of new individuals of a species.
Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction
Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction
Asexual reproduction creates offspring genetically identical to the parent, while sexual reproduction combines genetic material from two parents.

Study Notes
Reproduction Test Outline
- State the function of reproduction.
- Describe the differences between asexual and sexual reproduction, and identify the advantages and disadvantages of each.
- Identify and know the function of:
- Male reproductive organs: foreskin, bladder, glands, penis, scrotum, sperm ducts, testes, and urethra.
- Female reproductive organs: bladder, cervix, oviduct (fallopian tube), ovary, urethra, uterus/womb, vagina, labia, and clitoris.
- Know where testosterone and estrogen are made.
- Identify the main changes associated with puberty, including:
- Male changes: growth spurt, hair growth, acne, muscles, voice, emotional changes, sperm production, changes in responsibilities.
- Female changes: growth spurt, hips, breasts, menstrual cycle/periods, hair growth, egg production, emotional changes, changes in responsibilities.
- Describe the steps leading up to pregnancy, including ovulation, fertilization, and implantation.
