Planaria primarily reproduce asexually through a process called fission, where the organism divides into two or more parts, each regenerating into a complete individual. They can also reproduce sexually, possessing both male and female reproductive organs, and engage in copulation to exchange sperm. After fertilization, the eggs are laid in a protective casing. This dual reproductive strategy allows planaria to adapt to varying environmental conditions.
