A computer worm is a type of malware. Its ability to replicate functional copies of itself is one of its characteristics. It does not require a host program to replicate due to its standalone characteristic.

What happens if you cut a worm in half?

a planaria worm will grow back in to two separate worms What it says below is not true kind of. Today I cut a worm in half, at first I thought I killed it but then I noticed The tail side started moving around. You know a cats tail well it was moving like that but really fast around the ground. The head side just took off like a normal worm through the grass. I took both sides of the worm home and noticed after 3 or 4 hours that the head part grew its tail back and it was now just a short wimpy worm. The tail part did not grow back though, it simpley died after 3-4 hours. So now you know that if you cut a worm in half it will not make 2 worms just simpley heals it self after hours and the other half stops moving... :) The worm dies a very painful death. It is pure myth that it creates two worms as if you take a time to look up what makes a worm you will see it does indeed have a top and a bottom, so to speak. So, don't rush out and think if i cut this worm in half he will have a little friend to hang out with....coz he wont! :)
