What is the primary function of the reproductive system?

  1. Eliminates carbon dioxide as a waste product

  2. Produces offspring and passes on the genetic code from one generation to another

  3. Regulates heart and breathing rate

  4. Senses touch, heat, and cold

The correct answer is: Eliminates carbon dioxide as a waste product

The primary function of the reproductive system is to produce offspring and pass on the genetic code from one generation to another. This involves the process of producing gametes (sperm and eggs) and facilitating fertilization and pregnancy. While the other options may describe important functions of other systems in the body, they are not related to the primary function of the reproductive system.
