(a)Fragmentation is a made of asexual reproduction. It is the unintentional cutting up of the body of an organism. Each fragment develops into a new individual. Example: Spirogyra

(b) Regeneration: Regeneration involves the capacity of an organism to give rise to an entire individual from a portion. This type of regeneration occurs in Planaria. When Planaria gets cut unintentionally, the cut fragments give rise to a new individual. In this type, active cell division occurs before the replacement. The newly formed mass undergoes differentiation to form specialized cells.
