Is a sea star produces a new arm after loosing one to a predator reproduction?

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.


How does a starfish heal?

If a starfish loses an arm, it has the power to regenerate, meaning it can grow its appendages back. In fact, if a live starfish lost all its legs(so that it would just be 5 seprate legs - or, at least, most of the time 5 legs) as long as each leg has part of the central body part, every leg can regenerate into a new starfish.

Why do starfish legs fall off?

Yes, most starfish can regrow an arm (also known as a ray) if it is lost. However, a single arm will not grow into a new starfish. From what I have learned, as long as a part of the central point of the sea star still attached, the starfish can completely regrow. So, it is also possible for 2 halves to grow into 2 new starfish.
