Recorded sources
10 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Snails are hermaphrodites?

Yes. A children's reference book states plainly that snails are hermaphrodites, each having both male and female body parts. Other sources confirm hermaphroditism for particular groups such as pulmonate land snails, desert snails, and freshwater snails, covering only part of the claim.
