Can a female lay eggs by herself?
It depends on the species!
* In some species, females can lay eggs without needing a male. This is called parthenogenesis. Some examples include:
* Komodo dragons: They can reproduce asexually, producing offspring from unfertilized eggs.
* Some species of insects, fish, and reptiles: Parthenogenesis is more common in these groups.
* For most species, females need to mate with a male to lay fertilized eggs. This is the usual way for birds, amphibians, reptiles, and most fish to reproduce.
So, the answer is not a simple yes or no. It depends on the specific species and their reproductive strategies.
