When a starfish id sliced into three pieces and each piece grows into a New starfish what is that an example of?

When a starfish is sliced into three pieces and each piece grows into a new starfish, it is an example of asexual reproduction, specifically a process called fragmentation. In this type of reproduction, a single organism can break into parts, and each part has the ability to regenerate and develop into a new individual. This capability allows starfish to effectively reproduce and increase their population without the need for sexual reproduction.
