Best Answer

After some time the arm will grow back. If it happens to lose the arm again, it will grow back again. As long as the starfish does not lose its main body (the middle portion) it has the ability to regenerate a single or multiple lost arms. The time it takes for the starfish to replace a lost arm depends on the overall health of the starfish and age.

Not only can they regrow an arm, there are some species that can be cut completely in half and both sides will regenerate and you will have 2 starfish.

No. It is called metamorphosis and that cut arm will not grow a new starfish
