I believe you are thinking of sexual reproduction. The opposite of sexual reproduction is asexual reproduction which occurs when offspring are produced without a male. Asexual reproduction is common among certain plants and single-celled organisms like bacteria and protists. Some species of animal can switch back and forth between sexual and asexual reproduction. Turkeys are a good example of this. Female turkeys can produce fertilized eggs in the absence of a male. Aphids are also capable of producing young in the absence of a male.
