Why is regeneration not the same as reproduction?

 

Answer:

Regeneration is not same as reproduction because in regeneration lost body part is developed from existing body part . And in reproduction a whole new organism developes from gametes.

For example - planaria which is a simple multicellular organism can give rise to offspring by regeneration whereas humans cannot.
