Sažetak
Human reproduction and growth depend on normal developmental processes such as the production of competent
gametes, fertilization, embryonic development, pregnancy,
and birth. The characteristics of a newborn are determined
by specific genes on maternally and paternally inherited
chromosomes. Forty-six chromosomes in humans bear approximately 23000 genes. If genes are located on the same
chromosome, they are usually inherited together and are
known as linked genes. Human fertility or infertility is determined by several biological processes, including organ
formation and development, neuroendocrine regulation,
hormone production, meiosis, and mitosis (1-3)
