(a) Explain the process of regeneration in Planaria.(b) How is regeneration different from reproduction?

(a) Regeneration is the type of asexual reproduction where a complete organism is formed from its small-cut body parts.

Planaria are the organisms that have the ability to regenerate the complete body from their cut body parts.

(b) Regeneration is an asexual mode of reproduction whereas the reproduction process can be asexual or sexual.

In the regeneration process, only one parent is involved to produce the offsprings or daughter cells, while during reproduction, more than one parents are involved to produce the offsprings.
