The isolation of Earthworms and soil nematodes

[Theertha (Theertha M.D.)]

CUBE CHATSHAALA:27/10/2024

Major questions are addressed:

1)How does the regeneration in Chlorohydra, Earthworm and planaria different?

Related reference:

When a hydra is cut in half, the half containing the head will regenerate a new basal disc, and the half containing the basal disc will regenerate a new head. Moreover, if a hydra is cut into several portions, the middle portions will regenerate both heads and basal discs at their appropriate ends. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK9971/#:~:text=When%20a%20hydra%20is%20cut,discs%20at%20their%20appropriate%20ends.

ChloroHydra Viridissima - Regeneration Study at Homelab,Mira road

Aim:To study regeneration in Hydra Objective: To ampute 3 ChloroHydra’s and to study regeneration process.** Question: 1)Will Hydra regenerate when cut from middle horizontally, how many days? 2)Can the gastric region regenerate into (head&basal disc)when Head and Basal disc are cut down? Hypothesis: 1)ChloroHydra will regenerate within 4-5 days. 2)The Gastric region will regenerate into Head and Basal Disk. Requirements: 3 ChloroHydra’s, Ice Cube tray, Glass slip (along with white paper…
