In the sexual reproducing phyla Nematoda, are the animal’s hermaphrodites or separate  sexes?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Hermaphrodites are the animals which have both the sexes present in the same body i,.e they are able to produce male gametes and female gametes in the same body as it contains both the males and female reproductive organs together. This usually happens in the lower animals. In higher animals, the dioecious condition is present separating females and males.
