1: Sec 1.3 Characteristics of the Living Human Organism Solution: Reproduction occurs through the
fertilization of an ovum by a sperm cell to form a zygote, followed by repeated cell divisions and the
differentiation of these cells. Growth is an increase in body size that results from an increase in the size
of existing cells, an increase in the number of cells, or both.
