Reproduction covers both plant and human reproduction in NEET. Plant reproduction includes pollination (types, agents), double fertilization, and seed structure. Human reproduction covers male and female reproductive systems, gametogenesis (spermatogenesis, oogenesis), menstrual cycle, fertilization, and embryonic development. Reproductive health (contraception, ART) is tested directly from NCERT.
