Speedjohn Posted April 4, 2017 Report Posted April 4, 2017 Earthworms are hermaphrodites , meaning worms have both male and female reproductive organs.the eggs of both of the mates become fertilized.This is a highly efficient way of ensuring the survival of the species. Earthworm populations typically double every 60 to 90 days.Snails and Around 21 families of fish are natural hermaphrodites. petrushkagoogol 1 Quote
