I think that my iesult weie not valiu. I think this because when we fiist cut the
planeiia it was haiu to cut them evenly. If you cut one enu biggei than the othei in
coulu change the uata completely. This anu it was haiu to het a goou look at what
the planaiea look like when they aie always stuck to the enu of the uish. 0ne way I
coulu have maue the uata moie ieliable is if somehow you coulu cut the planaiian
evenly with a veiy shaip scalpel. Anu maybe if theie was a smallei uish it woulu
make it easiei to uiaw the planeiia anu they woulu not be moving aiounu as much.
I think that if these changes weie maue the lab uata woulu be a lot moie accuiate.
Some of the similaiities that planaiea iegeneiate bouy paits anu makes a
whole oiganism. The noblest aie the ueveloping tissue that you see in the planaiia
when they aie iegeneiating. With stem cells you have the thiee cell layei become
paits of the bouy the outei layei oi the ectoueim become skin neivous system face
anu paits of the neck the miuule lay oi the mesoueim become mussel, bloou, anu
bloou vessels anu the beginnings of bones. The outei layei oi the enuoueim become
the uigestive anu iepeitoiy tiacks anu the glanus that feeu into them incluuing the
pancieas anu the livei. This is like the neoblast because it is what has the planaieia
iegeneiate.
Stem cell ieseaich anu its funuing have causeu enoimous contioveisy ovei
the past uecaue. Stem cells aie pluiipotent cells piesent in all living oiganisms.
These cells can uiffeientiate into any type of cell. The scientific community is veiy
exciteu about the possibility of these iuentical cells being useu to tieat catastiophic
conuitions such as Alzheimei's anu Paikinson's Biseases, biith uefects, spinal coiu
injuiies anu stiokes, Type I uiabetes, cancei, anu seveiely uamageu oigans. But
theie is still contioveisy about the cells being useu in the wiong way anu fuithei

ieseaich in neeueu. Also theie is possible ways to clone oiganisms with the new
technology anu stem cells. But with new knowleuge comes a new concein about the
cieative misuse of this iuea.

In this lab we tiisecteu a flatwoim planaiea. I hypothesizeu that the
posteiioi woulu iegeneiate fiist. Ny uata shows by uay 8 the posteiioi woulu
iegeneiate. Accoiuing to my uata that I collecteu the posteiioi was iegeneiating the
fastest. Anu by uay 8 it was cleai it hau iegeneiateu anu hau less ghost cells anu
moie pigmentation. In S
iu
peiiou the peicent of planaeia that hau the miu section
iegeneiate the fastest was S4% anu 49 peicent foi the 7
th
giaue. This is S1 peicent
gieatei than both the posteiioi anu anteiioi in S
iu
peiiou anu SS% uiffeience
between the miusection anu the posteiioi anu a 12% uiffeience between the
anteiioi anu the miu section. In conclusion my panaiia hau the posteiioi giow back
the fastest but the majoiity of the school hau the miusection iegeneiate the fastest.
