The process, occurring above the cellular level, that is pertinent to the reproductive function of a multicellular organism. This includes the integrated processes at the level of tissues and organs. The pairwise union of individuals for the purpose of sexual reproduction, ultimately resulting in the formation of zygotes. 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. Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of penile erection. Penile erection is the hardening, enlarging and rising of the penis which often occurs in the sexually aroused male and enables sexual intercourse. Achieved by increased inflow of blood into the vessels of erectile tissue, and decreased outflow. Any process that increases the rate, frequency or extent of penile erection.

Achieved by increased inflow of blood into the vessels of erectile tissue, and decreased outflow. The act of sexual union between male and female, involving the transfer of sperm. The biological process by which new individuals are produced by one or two multicellular organisms. The new individuals inherit some proportion of their genetic material from the parent or parents.
