| Budding | An offspring grows out of the parents body (not an equal dividing). |
| Fragmentation/Regeneration | Offspring form out of broken pieces of the parent. |
| Sexual Reproduction | The genetic information from two parents is combined to create offspring with unique genetic traits. |
| Internal Fertilization | Fertilization (egg + sperm) occurs within the female. |
| External Fertilization | Fertilization occurs outside the female in a watery medium. |
| Angiosperms | Flowering plant. |

| Filament | Stalk holds anther up. |
| Stamen | Filament & stalk (male part). |
| Stigma | Sticky part where pollen sticks. |
| Style | Stalk that supports the stigma. |
| Ovary | Where fertilization occurs (pollen+egg=seed), seeds are formed, turned into fruit. |
