What's the difference between reproduce and reproductive?

Reproduce


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To produce again.
  • (v. t.) To bring forward again; as, to reproduce a witness; to reproduce charges; to reproduce a play.
  • (v. t.) To cause to exist again.
  • (v. t.) To produce again, by generation or the like; to cause the existence of (something of the same class, kind, or nature as another thing); to generate or beget, as offspring; as, to reproduce a rose; some animals are reproduced by gemmation.
  • (v. t.) To make an image or other representation of; to portray; to cause to exist in the memory or imagination; to make a copy of; as, to reproduce a person's features in marble, or on canvas; to reproduce a design.

Example Sentences:
