Class Branchiopoda Order Diplostraca n Sexes n n Type of reproduction n Hermaphroditism Gonochorism Parthenogenesis in Cladocera Monosexual Parthenogenesis Bisexual reproduction normal sexual reproduction Eggs n n Summer - thin-shelled Winter - resting Normal conditions n n Females make eggs that hatch without fertilization and become females (2 N) When environmentally stressed n Females produce eggs that hatch into haploid males. n Once the males become mature, the Cladocerans can reproduce sexually.
