    C) If the assertion is true but the reason is false

    D) If both the assertion and reason are false

    E) If the assertion is false but reason is true

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Regeneration is the ability of an organ to replace its lost or damaged body parts. Hydra has great power of regeneration. If a living Hydra is cut into two, three or more pieces, each missing part grows and becomes a complete animal. Regeneration is not reproduction because it is not a normal method of multiplications. Regeneration of hydras is made possible by the amazing generative power of totipotent interstitial cells.
