Points to Remember
Some of the important points to remember from this chapter are as follows:
Asexual reproduction is the production of offspring by a single parent without gamete fusion.
Sexual reproduction creates new individuals by combining and fusing male and female gametes.
Vegetative propagation is the process of creating new plants from plant vegetative parts such as a root, stem, or leaves.
Flowering plants reproduce sexually.
Puberty-related body changes, such as increased breast size in girls and new facial hair growth in boys, are indicators of sexual maturation.
In humans, the male reproductive system consists of the testis, which produces sperms, the vas deferens, seminal vesicles, the prostate gland, the urethra, and the penis.
The initiation of menstruation is called menarche. The stoppage of menstruation is called menopause.
Implantation is the process by which a young embryo attaches to the uterine wall.
A bacterial STD is gonorrhoea, a viral STD is HIV, and a bacterial STD is a syphilis.

Few Important Questions
What is difference between fission and fusion?
Fission is the process where an atom splits into two or more smaller parts. Whereas fusion involves the fusing of two or smaller atoms into a larger particular.
What is fragmentation?
Fragmentation is a form of asexual reproduction where the parent organism breaks into fragments. Each of these fragments are capable of growing independently into a new organism.
What is a gamete cell?
Gamete cell are the reproductive cells of an organism. Female gametes are referred to a ova or egg cells and male gametes are known as sperms.
