🤔 How it works ……..

HOW DO SNAILS REPRODUCE? 🐌

Different snails reproduce differently, but most snails are “hermaphrodites.” Being a hermaphrodite means that any given snail can be both male and female at the same time.

This can make it a lot easier for snails to reproduce and quickly make a whole lot of snails! Some hermaphrodite snails do not need another snail to reproduce, but can make more snails all by themselves (this is called asexual reproduction).
Other snails are hermaphrodites but still need another snail to reproduce (this is called sexual reproduction).
There are also some snails that aren’t hermaphrodites, but are either male or female, and must find a snail of the opposite sex to breed with.

Hence, a driver sitting on left side in the car will have a better appreciation of the traffic coming from opposite.

Left-om Britain in 1835. Countries which were part of the British Empire followed suit. This is why to this very day, India, Australia and there former British colonies in Africa go left.
