Anon #3 probably thinks about seahorses.
But technically the famale seahorse lays the eggs in the male. Who then just carries them for a while before they hatch.

There's no such thing as a species that switches between genders. And in the seahorses case, the male gives brith, while the female lays the eggs in the male.
I believe what you're thinking is a species that can fertilize the eggs, then give birth to them without requiring the other gender. And this is mostly within reptilian species, and mainly within species that are of only the female breed.

there is actually a fish species that, if there are only females in the school, one or two females will then change gender so that they can fertilise the eggs of the other fish. i cant remember the name of the fish, but, i saw it on a special about ocean life on the documentary channel
