Introduction: Reproduction is the biological process through which the new individual organism is produced from their parents. It is the ubiquitous properties of life. It is essential for the evolution, since the ceaseless replacement of predecessors with new life gives animal population. There are two types of reproduction, namely asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction.
