Difference between Lactation and Reproductive system

Lactation vs. Reproductive system

Lactation describes the secretion of milk from the mammary glands and the period of time that a mother lactates to feed her young. The reproductive system or genital system is a system of sex organs within an organism which work together for the purpose of sexual reproduction.

Similarities between Lactation and Reproductive system

Lactation and Reproductive system have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Breast, Female, Hormone, Mammary gland, Pituitary gland, Pregnancy, Species, Uterus.

Breast

The breast is one of two prominences located on the upper ventral region of the torso of primates.

Pituitary gland

An explanation of the development of the pituitary gland (Hypophysis cerebri) & the congenital anomalies. In vertebrate anatomy, the pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is an endocrine gland about the size of a pea and weighing in humans.

Species

In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank, as well as a unit of biodiversity, but it has proven difficult to find a satisfactory definition.

Uterus

The uterus (from Latin "uterus", plural uteri) or womb is a major female hormone-responsive secondary sex organ of the reproductive system in humans and most other mammals.
