Description

It seems to me like the terms Reproductive gland and Gonad mean similar things and at least Gonad should subclass Reproductive gland

Yet there seem to be to very different trees:
organ/gland/reproductive gland/male reproductive gland
multicellular anatomical structure/reproductive structure/reproductive organ/gonad

Reproductive organ not being a subclass of organ also seems strange.
