Regeneration in biology is the process of renewal, restoration, and tissue growth that makes genomes, cells, organisms, and ecosystems resilient to natural fluctuations or events that cause disturbance or damage.

He says that the animal world offers remarkable repair and regeneration examples, but that some of that genetic information would have been “unnecessary for early mammals that were lucky to not ...

Regeneration indicates the ability to regrow a missing part. [8] This is very prevalent amongst plants, which show continuous growth, and also among colonial animals such as hydroids and ascidians. But most interest by developmental biologists has been shown in the regeneration of parts in free living animals.
Unlike the limited regeneration seen in adult humans, many animal groups possess an ability to completely regenerate damaged tissue. [4] Full limb regeneration is seen both in invertebrates (e.g. starfish and flatworms which can regenerate fully functioning appendages) and some vertebrates, however in the latter this is almost always confined to the immature members of the species: an example ...
The Society for Ecological Restoration defines restoration as "the process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem that has been degraded, damaged, or destroyed." [1] Restoration ecology is the academic study of the science of restoration, whereas ecological restoration is the implementation by practitioners. [21]
According to statistics provided by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®, 6.3 million companion animals enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year: 3.1 million ...
Epimorphosis is defined as the regeneration of a specific part of an organism in a way that involves extensive cell proliferation of somatic stem cells, [1] dedifferentiation, and reformation, [2] as well as blastema formation. [3]
