How does reproduction help in providing stability to the population of species? (AS1)

a) Every organism in a population has a certain life span. In that particular time period, it takes birth, grows, develops and after fulfilling its life expectancy dies.

b) Reproduction ensures that the population of a particular species keeps on surviving by the production of new offspring’s of the same kind.

c) If reproduction does not take place, no new organisms will be produced while the old ones keep on perishing. A time will come when all the organisms are dead and the population of particular species will cease to exist.

d) Hence, reproduction is important for providing stability to a population.
