Repair or grow missing tissue
A
binary fission
B
regeneration
C
meiosis
D
budding
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Regeneration involves restitution of tissue components; repair involves “patching” rather than restoring. The amount of regeneration vs. repair that occurs depends on the proliferative capacity of the cells, the integrity of the stromal framework and the duration of the injury and inflammatory response.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis is used for growth and repair and produces diploid cells identical to each other and the parent cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -In humans, perfect tissue regeneration has only been described in fetal skin (14). Postnatal human epidermis, gut epithelium, and the hematopoietic system represent tissues that maintain the highest regenerative capacity.
