CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Internal fertilization may occur by the male directly depositing sperm in the female during mating. It may also occur by the male depositing sperm in the environment, usually in a protective structure, which a female picks up to deposit the sperm in her reproductive tract.

Detailed explanation-2: -Animals produce offspring through asexual and/or sexual reproduction. Both methods have advantages and disadvantages. Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent because the offspring are all clones of the original parent.

Detailed explanation-3: -The vast majority of animals need to breed to reproduce. But a small subset of animals can have offspring without mating. The process, called parthenogenesis, allows creatures from honey bees to rattlesnakes to have so-called “virgin births.” Such events can shock those who care for the animals.
