Solution

The correct option is C Regeneration
Planaria belongs to Platyhelminthes. They are flatworms.
They have immense potential for regeneration. Cells at the location of the wound site proliferate to form a blastema that will differentiate into new tissues and regenerate the missing parts of the piece of the cut planaria.
So, the correct answer is option B.
