hermaphrodite

hermaphrodite creatures in classical sculpture.

The hermaphrodite flowers with deformity germen could pollinate and fecundate normally and form fruits with deformity.

The hermaphrodite sea slug can reproduce both as a male and a female.

Some plants are hermaphrodites, containing both male and female reproductive organs.

Hermaphrodite animals have both testicular and ovarian tissue.

The hermaphrodite clownfish can change its sex depending on its social hierarchy.

In some species, hermaphrodites can self-fertilize.

Hermaphrodite organisms may exhibit a combination of male and female physical characteristics.

The presence of hermaphrodite individuals in a population can lead to unique mating behaviors.

Hermaphrodites play a crucial role in the reproduction of certain species.

I think hermie the hermaphrodite needs a jumbo coffee.

So these guys are hermaphrodites, which means they have both male and female genitalia.

She called me hermie the hermaphrodite for three years just because she didn't like my glasses.

But still there are many hermaphrodite animals which certainly do not habitually pair, and a vast majority of plants are hermaphrodites.

Turning for a brief space to animals: various terrestrial species are hermaphrodites, such as the land-mollusca and earth-worms; but these all pair.

Nevertheless there is reason to believe that with all hermaphrodites two individuals, either occasionally or habitually, concur for the reproduction of their kind.

But if, in fact, all hermaphrodites do occasionally intercross, the difference between them and unisexual species is, as far as function is concerned, very small.

Of aquatic animals, there are many self-fertilising hermaphrodites; but here the currents of water offer an obvious means for an occasional cross.

Modern research has much diminished the number of supposed hermaphrodites and of real hermaphrodites a large number pair; that is, two individuals regularly unite for reproduction, which is all that concerns us.

With plants having separated sexes, and with those in which, though hermaphrodites, the pollen does not spontaneously fall on the stigma, some aid is necessary for their fertilisation.
