Sea Urchin Fertility

This short program explores the reproductive behavior of sea urchins. The female sea urchin releases eggs and the male releases sperm, leaving it up to chance if the eggs and sperm meet in open ocean. Fertilized eggs become larvae, which, if not eaten, drift with current and possibly populate new locations.
