Understanding Reproduction and Development: Sexual vs Asexual Strategies

This document explores the mechanisms of reproduction and development, contrasting sexual and asexual reproduction. It examines the advantages and disadvantages of each method in various circumstances, including hermaphroditism and sequential hermaphroditism. Specific examples, such as the Maori wrasse's protogynous and protandrous traits, illustrate these concepts. The text also discusses unique reproductive strategies like parthenogenesis, which involves egg production without fertilization. Understanding these reproductive strategies is crucial for studying biodiversity and evolutionary adaptations.
