Planarian have such advanced regenerative properties that over 1/279th of the animal can completely regenerate (Handberg et al., 2007). They have powerful regenerative capabilities because they have an abundance of…

    Charts were created from a cumulated pool of planarian research. Dead and missing planaria were not included in the data pool. Discussion: After undergoing the regeneration process Planaria had varying responses. This study concluded that the majority of planaria retain the learning process after regeneration, this statement is especially relevant in the head regenerated planaria. Before the experiment, a hypothesis was made that the head end would retain the classical conditioning and the tail…

    The first source that I found would be helpful for the research because it talks about planarian. The article talks about their regeneration. They focus about the cells, epidermis, and s phase of their body. It has a clear explanation of how they regenerate and produce new head or tail. Also, talks about their reproduction asexually. This will have clear explanation on why the flatworm from the lab multiplied. The second source would be helpful for the research because it shows all the steps on…

    Barker is then able to follow individual cases fully exploring the lasting impression that war has left. This also allows her to provide a historical structure as Rivers has extensive knowledge about the war and particularly its psychological effects, which he communicates throughout the novel. Rivers then provides a historical structure in another sense. Inevitably, in war literature there is an element of realism due to historical basis, but Pat Barker emphasises this though intertextuality.…

    Neuronal regeneration is a high energy demanding process however, with maturation, axonal mitochondria transport progressively declines. Mitochondria are cellular powerhouses that supply ATP; essential for neuron growth, survival, and regeneration. Motile mitochondria can become stationary and in mature axons of the central nervous system (CNS), the majority of the mitochondria become stationary with only about 20-30% remaining motile. With this reduction in mitochondrial transport, mature CNS…

    Exploring the factors affecting hair regeneration after a wound in primates Hair follicle formation and development normally takes place during fetal development. However, after a wound hair follicle formation and regeneration can still occur in mouse and rabbits (Ito et al., 2007). The way the skin responds to a wound differs between mammals. Humans for example respond to deep skin wound by blocking the hair formation and instead it forms a scar (Reynolds et al., 1999). On the other hand,…

    Discussion Dugesia regeneration is happening and the response rate to stimuli can be observed. Planarians have the ability to fully regenerate demonstrating the fascinating study of stem cells and tissue regenerations. The regeneration of the planarian may require the planarian to reshape its form by finding the right proportion to acquire the right shape and size of its body to form a functional, bilaterally symmetrical anatomy. The regeneration period can vary with different species, some…
