Can you think of reasons why more complex organisms cannot give rise to new individuals through regeneration?
Regeneration is the process of renewal, restoration and growth of tissues to the organisms itself that makes organisms or ecosystem resillience to the natural fluctuation that is done by the disturbance. And in complex organisms, different tissues and organs have their different structures. So, the rengeneration process is unable to give rise to new individuals from complex organisms.

What is an homologous series? Explain with an example.
Why is variation beneficial to the species but not necessarily for the individual?
A man with blood group A marries a woman with blood group O and their daughter has blood group O. Is this information enough to tell you which of the traits – blood group A or O – is dominant? Why or why not?
What are the components of the transport system in highly organised plants?
