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! :)

Does a worm grow back two heads when the first is cut off?
No, a worm does not grow back two heads when the first is cut off. While some species of worms, like planarians, can regenerate lost body parts, they typically do not produce two heads. Instead, a flatworm may regenerate a single head, and the regeneration process is complex and depends on the species and the circumstances of the injury. In most cases, if a worm is cut in half, it may regenerate the missing segments, but with only one head.
