Do earthworms reproduce sexually or asexually?
Sexually. Earthworms are bisexual, or hermaphroditic, which means that each individual has both male and female sex organs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first answer is not completely right. Earthworms have babies asexually and sexually, becasue sexually they can mate with another worm, and asexually because a worm can have it by itself ans the baby worm will have the exactly same DNA. Worms also have babies asexually because if you cut a worm in half it goes through regeneration and fragementation and that piece becomes a different worm and the other piece regrows. <--That is incorrect: Worms do not regrow into two worms when cut in half. The part that contains the upper half of the body will regrow the parts that it has lost, while the lower part (that doesn't contain the brain) will just wiggle around because of the ganglia that are still intact.

Segmented worms, such as earthworms, are hermaphrodites, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs.

What unique reproductive characteristic do earthworms possess?
Earthworms are hermaphrodites: They typically have two pairs of testes, surrounded by 2 pairs of testes sacs. There are 2 or 4 pairs of seminal vesicles which produce, store and release the sperm via the male pores, and ovaries and ovipores in segment 13 that release eggs via female pores on segment 14.Copulation and reproduction are separate processes in earthworms. The mating pair overlap front ends ventrally and each exchanges sperm with the other
