Solution

The correct option is B Reparative regeneration
The liver is a very special organ because even if more than 50% of its overall mass is damaged (say by, intoxication), it can regenerate itself completely. It has a complex architecture which must be restored if damaged by drugs. The liver is known to have the maximum capacity to regenerate due to the presence of the stem cells. These stem cells have the capability to divide and develop into new tissues. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
