Solution: Reproduction occurs through the fertilization of an ovum by a sperm cell to form a
n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9
zygote, followed by repeated cell divisions and the differentiation of these cells. Growth is
n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9
an increase in body size that results from an increase in the size of existing cells, an increase
n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9 n9
in the number of cells, or both.
