Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. A biological process that directly contributes to the process of producing new individuals by one or two organisms. The new individuals inherit some proportion of their genetic material from the parent or parents. The pairwise union of individuals for the purpose of sexual reproduction, ultimately resulting in the formation of zygotes. Any process by which an organism has an effect on another organism of the same or different species. The behavioral interactions between organisms for the purpose of mating, or sexual reproduction resulting in the formation of zygotes. The act of sexual union between male and female, involving the transfer of sperm. The production by an organism of new individuals that contain some portion of their genetic material inherited from that organism.
