When starfish lose their arms and regrow them, the process is called regeneration. This remarkable ability allows them to replace lost limbs, which can occur due to injury or predation. The regeneration process can take several months, depending on the species and environmental conditions.

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.

The time it takes for the starfish to replace a lost arm depends on the overall health of the starfish and age.
What are some weird facts about starfish?
Starfish have no brains and no blood. Their nervous system is spread through their arms and their blood is actually filtered sea water.When starfish lose an arm, they can grow it back! This process is called "Autotomy." After the arm comes off, the cut area begins to heal and a new arm begins to grow. The arm that is broken off will die. However, in some cases, not only do the starfish grow new arms, but the arms that have been cut off grow new starfish.
