Yes, many species of crabs are able to regenerate lost limbs, although the extent and rate of regeneration can vary between species and individuals. When a crab loses a limb, it will undergo a process of tissue repair and regeneration to grow a new limb over the course of several molts. The newly grown limb may not be identical to the original limb in shape or function, but it will allow the crab to continue to move and hunt.

Yes, crabs have the remarkable ability to regenerate lost limbs through a process called autotomy, where they can regrow their limbs over time.

Yes, some species of crabs have the ability to regenerate lost limbs. The process of limb regeneration in crabs is known as autotomy, and it occurs when a crab loses a limb to escape a predator or other danger. Over time, the crab can regenerate the lost limb, and it may even grow back larger than the original.

Yes, crabs have the ability to regenerate lost limbs. When a crab loses a limb due to injury or predation, it can regenerate the limb over time through a process called autotomy. The process involves the crab intentionally shedding the limb at a predetermined breakage point to escape from a predator or a tight spot. Afterward, the crab's body initiates regeneration, growing a new limb to replace the lost one. The regenerated limb may not be identical to the original, but it can still function effectively.
