Regeneration, the regrowth of lost body parts, normally follows
A) all types of asexual reproduction.
B) all types of sexual reproduction.
C) fission.
D) fragmentation.
E) parthenogenesis.

Regeneration commonly occurs through fragmentation, where a piece of the organism breaks off and regrows into a new individual. This type of asexual reproduction is seen in many invertebrate animals such as starfish and planarians. Sexual reproduction, parthenogenesis, and fission do not typically involve regeneration.
