Regeneration during the healing process can be defined as:
A
Replacement of lost cells by white blood cells.
B
Replacement of lost cells by the same cells.
C
Replacement of lost cells by mast cells.
D
Replacement of lost cells by connective tissue.
Correct Option:
B
Explanation
Regeneration replaces damaged or lost tissue with cells of the same type, allowing the original tissue architecture and function to be restored. In contrast, repair by fibrosis replaces the damaged area with connective tissue or scar tissue and is not true regeneration.
