When an organism is sessile, or slow moving it might be very hard for that organism to find food, shelter and a reproductive mate. One of many solutions to the problem of finding a mate is hermaphroditism. When an organism is hermaphroditic it means that it has the reproductive organs of both sexes and that it is able to self-fertilize. This solution, although sometimes very useful, if used all the time can lead to inbreeding and have negative effects on the genetic diversity of the population. Therefore, hermaphroditic organisms self-fertilize only in cases where there is no available mate to be found.
Because of evolutionary traits based on the environment.
Explanation: This is probably because they live in a similar environment, so they both evolved to have similar adaptations to make them excel in that specific enviroment
A waste product of photosynthesis organisms need for cellular respiration is oxygen.We breathe out carbon dioxide and plants use carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and in return they give us oxygen which is their waste product.
