Sharks have three different ways of reproducing, oviparity, viviparity, and ovoviviparity. During oviparity they lay eggs in the ocean. During viviparity they nourish the pups through placental links, much like mammals, and the pups are born fully functional. During ovoviviparity, eggs develop inside the oviduct of the mother and then hatch inside the oviduct where they finish their development using the remaining egg content to make pups born fully functional.
Baby sharks are called pups. They are typically born live, rather than hatched from eggs. After birth, they are independent and must fend for themselves.
Small sharks are often referred to as "pups" or "juveniles." They can also be classified based on their species, such as "dwarf lanternshark" or "dwarf catshark."
The gestation period for white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) typically lasts about 11 months, but it can vary between 9 to 12 months. Female white sharks are known to give birth to live young, with litters usually consisting of 2 to 14 pups. These pups are born fully developed and can be around 4 to 5 feet long at birth. After birth, they are independent and must fend for themselves immediately.
Yes, they do lay eggs that are jelly coated
We really don't know. It's difficult to tell how many eggs in all were produced were because the pups (baby sharks) eat eggs-- and each other-- while inside her. Mako sharks aren't egg-layers; they do live birth. They start when they're about six feet long but they can grow up to around 12. A litter is generally 4-16. Larger sharks give birth to more pups.
