Answer:

  • Starfish (sea stars) belong to the phylum Echinodermata and the class Asteroidea. These are radially symmetrical. They have a remarkable ability to regrow or regenerate arms and entire bodies in some cases. A few tropical species of starfish grow an entirely new body of starfish from just a portion of a severed limb. It can take up to a year or longer to complete and follows a three-phase model across species.
  • Regeneration in starfish occurs usually for three reasons, to recover limbs removed or eaten by predators, to evade predators, and to reproduce.
  • The ability of regeneration differs greatly among the species of starfish. But generally classified within three categories; disk-dependent bidirectional regeneration, disk-independent bidirectional regeneration, and unidirectional regeneration.
