'''Reproduction''' is the [[biological]] process by which new [[individual]] [[organisms]] are produced. Reproduction is a [[fundamental]] feature of all known life; each [[individual]] organism exists as the result of reproduction. The known [[methods]] of reproduction are broadly grouped into two main types: [[sexual]] and asexual.

In [[asexual]] reproduction, an [[individual]] can reproduce without involvement with another [[individual]] of that species. The division of a bacterial [[cell]] into two daughter cells is an example of asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is not, however, limited to single-celled [[organisms]]. Most  [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plants plants] have the [[ability]] to reproduce asexually.

[[Sexual]] reproduction requires the involvement of two [[individuals]], typically one of each gender.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reproduction]
