Planarian Observation
Our observations how planarian regenerate itself after cutting it in half led to this questions is this applicable to human in terms of regeneration and what is the role of stem cells in regeneration in comparison with planarians. As we observed how planarian regenerate itself. We followed how planaria regrow after cutting it in half along the transverse plane. During the experiment, we assumed that all parts of the planarian including the tail would regenerate due to cells that have the ability to specialize even in the adult form. Our experiment showed that it was possible from any part of the planarian to regenerate as well as a decrease in size during regeneration to allow growth of an entirely new section of its body.
