Answer:
Difficulty: Hard
Bloomcode: Synthesis
Learning Objective 1: LO1.3 Define the important life processes of the human body.
Section Reference 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 а
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.
