Polychaetes, a class of annelid worms, are primarily dioecious, meaning they have separate male and female individuals. However, some species exhibit hermaphroditism, possessing both male and female reproductive organs. This reproductive strategy can vary among species, with some engaging in external fertilization during specific breeding seasons. Overall, while hermaphroditism occurs in some polychaetes, it is not the norm for the group as a whole.
