Detailed explanation-1: -Planaria can reproduce both sexually and asexually.
Detailed explanation-2: -For example aphids, slime molds, sea anemones, and some starfish are capable of both asexual and sexual reproduction. Typically, when the environment is rich and abundant with resources, these species will undergo asexual reproduction.
Detailed explanation-3: -Asexual reproduction is common in sea anemones (Anthozoa, Actiniaria), which have evolved a variety of different asexual modes including pedal laceration, binary fission, longitudinal fission, and budding (reviewed by Shick 1991 ).
Detailed explanation-4: -Starfish, or sea stars, can reproduce sexually or asexually. During sexual reproduction, the male and female release sperm and eggs into the environment, resulting in fertilized free-swimming embryos.
