1.1 How the Body Repairs Itself: Regeneration in Nature

Living organisms have a natural ability to repair and regenerate damaged tissues. Human skin heals after injury, bones can regrow after fractures, and some animals—such as salamanders—can regenerate entire limbs.
This natural regeneration is possible because:

• cells can divide and replace damaged ones,
• specialized cells work together to rebuild tissue,
• biological systems follow organized growth patterns.

 Regenerative medicine is inspired by nature’s own repair mechanisms.
