Abstract

All organisms must reproduce for the survival of their species, be it through sexual or asexual means. Within this context, and perhaps because of the pressure to live on, species evolved many different ways to reproduce. As a consequence, reproduction is one of the most diverse biological attributes that organisms possess.
