Solution: Reproduction occurs through the fertilization of an ovum by a sperm cell to form a
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
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
