Puberty is when a child undergoes physical changes to become an adult and gain the ability to reproduce.  Ovaries in females and testicles in males send hormones to the brain which trigger the changes.   

Examples of changes brought by  puberty are pubic hair, arm pit hair, changes in voice tone, and rapid change in height, weight, and body form.   Women also begin to grow breasts and menstruate, while men begin to produce semen.

It usually occurs in the teen years in humans.
Wow, you summed up what I learned in teen ed for a week in two paragraphs...

Technically, humans can reproduce starting from the age of 9.
Tell that to Lawlz, and he'd orgasm.

I don't know, but I think someone slipped it in my drink when I was twelve.

Uh, no, there's not a set age, idiot. A girl becomes capable of having a baby when she begins ovulating, a boy becomes capable of fertilizing an egg when he begins producing sperm. The age differs for everyone.

It's very simple. People should not open their mouths unless they know what the hell they're talking about.

Well, that's the youngest age that I've heard was recorded officially. The kid needs to be able to strong enough for two lives, you know; it's quite a miracle that a 9 year-old can survive childbirth when there are adults who can't.

Then almost no one would talk since you will always be unsure of something.

What the hell does being "unsure of something" have to do with being uncertain about an extremely basic fact about human development? I love how people always try to post pseudo-rebuttals by using ambiguous words and what-if situations.
