Living things reproduce in order to pass on their genes to the next generation and ensure the survival of their species. While some individual living things may not reproduce due to various reasons such as infertility or asexual reproduction, the overall goal of reproduction is to maintain genetic diversity and adaptability within a population.

Why would you say that living things reproduce if some individual living things may not reproduce?

Living things possess the capacity to reproduce as a species, even if not all individual members reproduce. Reproduction is essential for the continuation of the species and allows for genetic diversity, adaptation to changing environments, and the perpetuation of life. While not all individuals may reproduce, the ability to do so is a fundamental characteristic of living organisms.


What happens if living things fail to reproduce?

Any species that does not reproduce will go extinct.By definition, a living thing reproduces. A single individual not reproducing simply means they don't contribute to the next generation's gene pool.


What will happen if living things will not produce?

Living things, that do not reproduce, would eventually die out and become extinct.

Why do living things need to reproduce but not non living things?

Do all living things reproduce?

One of the characteristics of a living thing is the ability to reproduce, otherwise the species of animal would become extinct. However, as of many other "rules" there are exceptions. Any mule (the offspring of two different species of animals, not necessarily a cross between a male donkey and a female horse) is unfertile.(meaning unable to reproduce) so I guess the answer is no, not every animal can reproduce.
