JManrow Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thankyou sir softy.......as we can see in the photo, the male is cozying up to the female polyp next to him. I can see some difference in the appearance of he oral disc coloration and structure. It that the main difference? I see tentacle coloration differs, but that may be the lighting. Possibly thicker and longer tentacles on male? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorge Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 They are hermaphrodite! How else would you explain one polyp turning into two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JManrow Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 They are hermaphrodite! How else would you explain one polyp turning into two? There are animals that have both sexes, such as nudibranchs, that are capable of impregnating each other. They cannot, however impregnate themselves. I an not exactly clear on this particular situation though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JManrow Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Asexual reproduction is totally different than sexual. It is basically dividing. there are many lower animals, if cut in pieces, will grow complete new organisms cloned from the original, all identical. Possibly any sexual reproduction must take place with individuals that are not cloned(of themselves). Hopefully, I am correct on the latter part.

Hope this helps: http://www.pnwmas.org/index.php?/topic/33184-Having-trouble-posting-photos? Also, using Photobucket correctly will not make them go to your page. It will simply insert the picture into your thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
