Reproductive system

The reproductive system of an organism, also known as the genital system, is the biological system made up of all the anatomical organs involved in sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction. Many non-living substances such as fluids, hormones, and pheromones are also important accessories to the reproductive system. Unlike most organ systems, the sexes of differentiatedspecies often have significant differences. These differences allow for a combination of genetic material between two individuals, which allows for the possibility of greater geneticfitness of the offspring.
