Planarian Fission

GwynneL.

Mechanics dictate where and how freshwater planarians fission SUMMARY: Planarians are tiny squishy worms that go through binary fission by ripping themselves in two parts: the head part and the tail part. This article looks at the mechanism of the ripping. First, there is the formation of the waist, then pulsation of the head, then… Continue reading Planarian Fission
