The Regenerative Starfish

Starfish, or sea stars, are known for their fascinating ability to regenerate.

But did you know the extent of this ability? If a starfish loses its central disc and one arm, it can entirely regenerate itself.

Furthermore, if an arm is lost along with a sufficient piece of the central disc, the former can grow an entirely new starfish.

This regeneration is possible due to their complex vascular system, the water vascular system, which also aids in their locomotion and respiration.

However, the ability is not only for survival or reproduction.

Scientists have observed that some starfish species use it seasonally to replace worn-out body parts.

Indeed, the starfish is one remarkable creature of the sea, making magic real under the ocean's mystery..
