Chapter 49, Problem 18TYK
Summary Introduction
To review:
The phylogenetic evidence that suggests about hermaphroditism of nematodes Caenorhabditis elegans and Caenorhabditis briggsae.
Introduction:
Hermaphroditism is a condition in which, during the time of sexual reproduction, either partner can act as “male” or “female.” The hermaphroditic plants are most of the flowering plants such as
