Reproduction
[edit | edit source]Mitromorpha dorcas is a type of sea snail that does not release its eggs and sperm into the water like many other marine animals. It is a non-broadcast spawner. Its life cycle also doesn't include the trochophore stage, which is the free-swimming early stage common among the marine creatures.[2]
