Hammerhead sharks breed sexually in the wild. However, there are documented cases of female hammerhead sharks reproducing asexually in captivity. Which condition most likely caused this surprising phenomenon?
a) The stress of captivity caused the change in reproduction mode.
b) There was an absence of male sharks.
c) Captive male sharks were very aggressive toward captive females.
d) A genetic mutation caused the change in reproduction mode.

Which organism is able to reproduce both sexually and asexually?
a) flowering plant
b) wolf
c) single-celled bacteria
d) alligator

It is known that the fern can reproduce asexually; therefore,
