They are unique in the sense that sawfish are able to reproduce in the wild without the need of a partner. They were able to engage in asexual reproduction. In parthenogenesis, an egg cell is created by dividing a singular precursor cell into four separate ones. The cell that develops into an egg cell retains the cytoplasm and other vital cellular structures. The remaining three contain excess genetic material. Fertilization happens when one of the three extra cells essentially turns into a sperm cell and combines with the egg cell.

Anna11 [10]
<span>Since alkylating agents work to prevent the cell from replicating its genetic material, the cell would most likely stop at the interphase checkpoint, which is the phase before mitosis (which consists of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase). During interphase, the cell replicates its genetic material (DNA), but this would be prohibited by alkylating agents.</span>
