Do animals reproduce asexually?

There are very few larger animals that reproduce asexually. (The "a" prefix means "not"; so "asexual" means "non-sexual". ) Among the more interesting ones are some species of shark. Under rare circumstances, female sharks in aquariums may lay eggs which will hatch into new, identical female sharks without the presence of any male sharks. There are some species of lizards capable of this as well. Among mammals, none reproduce asexually.

What is it called when the sperm from one plant fertilized the eggs of the same plant?

Plants do not have sperm. The male gamete is found in the pollen grain. The egg is usually called an ovule. When the pollen from the same plant is used, we speak of self pollination, and when the gametes fuse it is self fertilization.
