Solution

The correct option is B Produce similar of its kind
Reproduction is a process of producing offsprings from parents. It can be sexual, asexual or vegetative. Only sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes. It ensures continuity of a species by producing its own kind and also a transfer of genes in further generations.
So the correct option is 'Produce similar of its kind'.
