procreates
Brings forth young
Procreates is the third-person singular of procreate, meaning to produce offspring through sexual reproduction.
The word carries a formal or clinical tone compared to simpler alternatives like "have children" or "reproduce": The species procreates rapidly in warm conditions.
Procreate emphasizes the biological act of generating new life rather than the social aspects of parenting.
