Answer:
When a lizard loses its tail, it grows back. But how? Scientists have taken a big step closer to answering that question by pinpointing the genes responsible for tail regeneration. For the study, the researchers took a close look at roughly 23,000 genes found in samples of sliced-up tails of green anole lizards, and this suggested that a lizard DNA has a genetic "recipe" for regeneration. It takes lizards more than 60 days to regenerate a functional tail.
