yes, hermaphrodites usually contain both sex organs. They can fertilize their own

eggs but this is not a satisfactory solution for the long term because this

creates offspring genetically identical to the parent. This will not do in

case the environment changes down the road and none of the members of the

population can survive the change. There must be some way of creating

variation.

No. Humans cannot reproduce sexually. As we only have half the genetic material to give to offspring it would be impossible to impregnated oneself.
