Rape \Rape\, n. [L. rapa, rapum, akin to Gr. [?], [?], G. r[81]be.] (Bot.) A name given to a variety or to varieties of a plant of the turnip kind, grown for seeds and herbage. The seeds are used for the production of rape oil, and to a limited extent for the food of cage birds. Note: These plants, with the edible turnip, have been variously named, but are all now believed to be derived from the {Brassica campestris} of Europe, which by some is not considered distinct from the wild stock ({B. oleracea}) of the cabbage. See {Cole}. {Broom rape}. (Bot.) See {Broom rape}, in the Vocabulary. {Rape cake}, the refuse remaining after the oil has been expressed from the seed. {Rape root}. Same as {Rape}. {Summer rape}.

Reproduction \Re`pro*duc"tion\ (-d?k"sh?n), n. [Cf. F. reproduction.] 1. The act or process of reproducing; the state of being reproduced; specifically (Biol.), the process by which plants and animals give rise to offspring. Note: There are two distinct methods of reproduction; viz.: {asexual reproduction} (agamogenesis) and {sexual reproduction} (gamogenesis). In both cases the new individual is developed from detached portions of the parent organism. In asexual reproduction (gemmation, fission, etc.), the detached portions of the organism develop into new individuals without the intervention of other living matter. In sexual reproduction, the detached portion, which is always a single cell, called the female germ cell, is acted upon by another portion of living matter, the male germ cell, usually from another organism, and in the fusion of the two (impregnation) a new cell is formed, from the development of which arises a new individual. 2. That which is reproduced. | |
