Note
The plural mostly gathers the countable meanings of reproduction: copies of a painting, a sculpture or an antique chair, and, in software work, the steps that make a bug happen again. When the word names the biological process or the general act of copying, it tends to stay singular and uncountable, so you write reproduction in mammals, not reproductions. Pluralize it when you can count the copies.
