What does gynogenesis mean?
A type of parthenogenesis in which an egg develops into an individual without fertilization by a male, often resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the mother.
Example
"The process of gynogenesis was observed in certain species of fish, where the females were able to produce offspring without the presence of males."
