Answer:
The 'phenomenon' in which the 'female gamete' directly develops into a female organism is called parthenogenesis.
Explanation:
Thus 'parthenogenesis' is a form of 'asexual reproduction' taking place in animals. It is generally observed in lower level animals and insects and male organisms are hardly developed by this process.
Example of one bird in whom parthenogenesis is observed is turkey. Parthenogenesis is a good way to restore or maintain the population of an organism by not just increasing its number but also increasing female individuals.
