Male and female sea cucumbers can be distinguished primarily by their reproductive organs. Males typically have a more elongated body and possess small, tubular structures called gonophores, which release sperm. Females, on the other hand, often have a broader body shape and larger gonads that store eggs. Additionally, during the breeding season, males may exhibit specific behaviors or coloration changes to attract females.
