parthenogeny
Parthenogeny, also known as parthenogenesis, is a mode of asexual reproduction in which offspring develop from unfertilized eggs. It occurs naturally in some plants, invertebrates, and lower vertebrates, but does not typically occur in mammals. The term comes from the Greek words "parthenos" meaning virgin and "genesis" meaning origin or birth.
