Sugar starfish, also known as Astropecten spp., primarily reproduce asexually through fragmentation, where a part of the starfish can grow into a new individual. However, they can also reproduce sexually by releasing eggs and sperm into the water column, where fertilization occurs externally. This dual reproductive strategy allows them to adapt to varying environmental conditions.
Does it take two starfish to have babies?
Starfish can reproduce asexually (by themselves) or sexually (with a partner). They use a process called fission to reproduce asexually, and in this process, simply stated, they break pieces of themselves off and that becomes their offspring. However, they do have sexual organs and if they find a mate they can create young with them. -Isabel
