Catching a Pacific Shark produces sexual cells for both females and males

in #life7 years ago

Catching near the beach of Taiwan is a large sharp nose called Scolodon macrorhynchos, which later turned out to be a hermaphrodite shark.


The shark catches in the southern part of the Taiwan Strait, and the scientists discovered in his pelvic fin an anatomical structure that performs the function of the male reproductive system, the Daily Mail reported. It then turned out that the shark had a genital herpes that produced sexual cells for both females and males. At that point, the genitals look completely different, indicating that the shark is capable of enriching itself theoretically.


Predatory fish genetics can explain the ability of some to reproduce without sex. But has not yet discovered a shark of this kind carries an embryo.


Some experts believe that this anomaly is caused by pollution of the environment, and may be another reason, according to scientists, the hormone estrogen and other hormones that are present in the wastewater.
