Hermaphrodites


Most sponges are hermaphrodites, meaning they have both male and female sex organs. obviously this kitchen sponge cannot reproduce with another sponge, but sea sponges can. The process of reproduction is strange as the sponge will often release sperm into the water which will then meet with an egg, or it will travel into another sponge and meet with the egg there. 

(Note: The T.A.R.D.I.S., aka my original proof item has been lost, i will try to find it, but for now i will use my ring)
