Best Answer

Most often in Arthropods, reproduction is by regular sexual reproduction i.e. by union of a sperm and egg. But variations of the usual process do occur. Aphids (class Insecta), for example, commonly reproduce by parthenogenesis, egg development without fertilization , and produce only females. But later in the summer, some of them convert to being males and then sexual reproduction occurs. Male honey bees are produced by an unfertilized egg. Both of the examples may still be called sexual reproduction since they involve development of the female gamete, that is, the egg.

True asexual reproduction would not involve either gamete (sperm or egg) and all of the off spring would be genetically equal.
