Regeneration of hydra from reaggregated cells.

Separated cells of hydra reaggregate and develop into normal animals. The regeneration of serially grafted aggregates derived from different parts of hydra tissue demonstrates that the polarity of morphogenesis in hydra is the result of the cellular composition of the tissue, not cellular orientation.
