A hermaphrodite is an organism that possesses both male and female reproductive organs. This term is commonly used in Biology to describe certain plants and animals, including some invertebrates and fish, that can produce both sperm and eggs. In humans, the term is often replaced with "intersex," which refers to individuals with physical sex characteristics that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies. Hermaphroditism can provide reproductive advantages in various species by increasing mating opportunities.
