In the case of the several species of fish known as "Livebearers" The male has a hook on his "gonopodium" with which he hooks on to the female fishes "cloaca". Once he has hooked on, his "milt" is released and this travels along the gonopodium and enters the cloaca where the ova are fertilised.
The opening is commonly called the 'cloaca'.
Potential causes of a dilated cloaca in a platy fish may include infections, parasites, or dietary issues. Treatment options may include antibiotics, anti-parasitic medications, and adjusting the fish's diet to promote better digestion and overall health. It is important to consult with a veterinarian or experienced fish specialist for proper diagnosis and treatment.
No. Mammals do not have cloaca's.
Cloaca.
In zoological anatomy, a cloaca is the posterior opening that serves as the only such opening for the intestinal, reproductive, and urinary tracts of certain animal species. The word comes from Latin, and means sewer. All birds, reptiles, and amphibians possess this orifice, from which they excrete both urine and feces, unlike placental mammals, which possess two separate orifices for evacuation.A cloaca is the posterior opening in birds, reptiles, fish and monotremes (egg-laying mammals) which is the single opening for the reproductive, intestinal and urinal tracts. These animals pass their urine, faeces and eggs as well as live young through this opening. The word actually means sewer.
No ,male dogs do not possess cloaca but placental mammals have cloaca in their embryonic stage.
Cloacal aperture can be defined as the posterior opening on the body surface of the cloaca in vertebrates such as in birds, reptiles, fish, and amphibians.
A cloaca is an opening in the posterior of an animal. It is used to eliminate body waste such as urine. An inverted cloaca means that the cloaca is turned inside and is not opening properly.
Nideria and star fish. Star fish poops out of its mouth.
Yes. A cloaca is present in marsupials and monotremes, as well as in birds, amhibians and reptiles. Placental mammals do not have a cloaca.
Cloaca - film - was created in 2003.
