What is the difference between monoecious and dioecious mollusks?
Monoecious mollusks possess both male and female reproductive organs within a single individual, allowing them to produce both sperm and eggs. In contrast, dioecious mollusks have distinct male and female individuals, with each sex producing only one type of gamete. This difference in reproductive strategy can influence their mating behaviors and population dynamics. Examples of monoecious mollusks include many species of gastropods, while dioecious examples include certain bivalves and cephalopods.
