In a story similar to the virgin birth of a shark at the Reef HQ Aquarium in Queensland, Australia, zookeepers at the Chester Zoo in England reported that a Komodo dragon laid a clutch of eggs that hatched into healthy young. The zookeepers claimed that the offspring were a result of asexual reproduction. What evidence would confirm this claim?

    Answer and Explanation:

    the laid eggs hatched into healthy young without fertilization from the male therefore indicating the eggs were fertilized asexually. This form of fertilization is called parthenogenesis.

    Parthenogenesis is a form of reproduction in which an egg can develop into an embryo without being fertilized by a sperm. This form of fertilization is common in insects and most invertebrates.
