Renegeration is the growing back of a lost part of the body of an organism. It is usually used as a method of defence. Fragmentation is the unintentional cutting up of the body of an organism which each grows into different organism. It's a mode of asexual reproduction.

For example, a lizard can intentionally leave it's tail behind and grow it back later on. But the tail cannot grow into a lizard. While growing the tail back means that it can regenerate from the point where it was cut off, the tail not growing into a lizard means that it can't fragment itself to reproduce.

HOPE IT WAS CLEAR

A no. of animals have the ability to grow the lost organs of their body . This ability of organisms to replace their lost parts by growth is known as regeneration example- in starfish , Spiders , etc.

In organisms like planaria , hydra ,etc. small pieces of their bodies can give rise to new individuals.This process is called as fragmentation.

I hope you got it...!!!

What is the difference between habitat change and habitat fragmentation?

The difference between habitat and habitat fragmentation is that habitat is area where an organism lives and habitat fragmentation is altration of small areas withen a large region, creating a patchwork of altered and original habitats.


What is the difference between budding and regeneration?

budding is when a part of the organism brakes off it grows and becomes identical to the organism it broke of of or when it just grows on the organism and regeneration is when a sea star losses a limb and it grows back.


What is the difference between external fragmentation and internal fragmentation in memory management?

External fragmentation occurs when free memory blocks are scattered throughout memory, making it difficult to allocate contiguous blocks of memory to processes. Internal fragmentation, on the other hand, happens when allocated memory is larger than what is actually needed, leading to wasted space within memory blocks.


What is the difference between internal and external fragmentation in OS?

Internal Fragmentation is the area in a region or a page that is not used by the job occupying that region or page. This space is unavailable for use by the system until that job is finished and the page or region is released.


What is the difference between inflammation and regeneration of tissue?

Inflammation produces swelling, pain, redness, warmth which can occur in any part of the body. It is the result of bacteria within the tissue. Regeneration is repair after stabilizing the damaged and inflamed tissue.


What is Difference between habitat loss habitat degradation and habitat fragmentation?

Habitat loss refers to the complete destruction of a habitat, habitat degradation is the deterioration in the quality of a habitat without total destruction, and habitat fragmentation is the breaking up of a continuous habitat into smaller disconnected patches.


Difference between internal fragmentation and external fragmentation in operating system?

Fragmentation occurs in a dynamic memory allocation system when many of the free blocks are too small to satisfy any request. External Fragmentation: External Fragmentation happens when a dynamic memory allocation algorithm allocates some memory and a small piece is left over that cannot be effectively used. If too much external fragmentation occurs, the amount of usable memory is drastically reduced. Total memory space exists to satisfy a request, but it is not contiguous. Internal Fragmentation: Internal fragmentation is the space wasted inside of allocated memory blocks because of restriction on the allowed sizes of allocated blocks. Allocated memory may be slightly larger than requested memory; this size difference is memory internal to a partition, but not being used


What is it called when a new organism grows from the parent organism?

yes. some animals can regrow lost body parts. but please be more specific the next time you ask a question.


What is the difference between volume fragmentation and data fragmentation in relation to disk drives?

Volume fragmentation is where the partition volume is physically split across the drive into variable pieces. This is common on HFS and some other filesystems that do not need to be sequential or single-piece, and virtual filesystems. Data fragmentation is when a file or data portion is physically split across a volume, rather than being in a single sequential piece. This is also called 'fragmentation' and can usually be remedied with a 'defragmenter'. It is usually an undesireable state, as it requires longer to load a fragmented file.


What is sexual fragmentation?

Fragmentation is a means of asexual reproduction in which a single parent breaks into parts that regenerate into whole new individuals. Starfish use fragmentation and regeneration, the regrowth of body parts from pieces of an animal, to reproduce.
