Living things reproduce -- each type of organism has the potential to reproduce -- offspring have same general characteristics as their parents because reproduction insures that the genetic message carried in molecules of DNA is passed from one generation to the next -- individual organisms die, but reproduction insures that their species will persist through time -- if individual death rates exceed individual reproductive rates, then extinction of populations and species occurs.
