Sea stars can reproduce sexually and asexually. In sexual reproduction, fertilization occurs in the water with males and females releasing sperm and eggs into the
environment.
Asexual reproduction is by fragmentation, a part of an arm and part of the central
disk becomes detached from the "parent" and develops into an independent
individual sea star. In the past, many sea stars have been "killed" by chopping them
into pieces but they have been able to regenerate and grow into more sea stars. This
happend on the Great Barrier Reef in early attempts to control the Crown of Thorn
Sea stars.
