Text Appearing Before Image: nt (Fig. 206). In any colony a division of labor may occur among theconstituent individuals, or zooids. Thus in the simplestcases we have crawling zooids,or stolons, and feeding zooids.In Hydractinia1 we have, in addi-tion, reproductive zooids, nettlingzooids, and passive, thorn-likezooids. Here we see how com-pletely subservient the individualis to the good of the community.This subserviency has ruled in allsuccessful colonies of animals. Regeneration. — Closely allied to the power of budding is that ofreproducing a lost organ. Suppos-ing the head (mouth and ten-tacles) of a Hydra to be cut off, the base will reproduce the lost head. Suppose the base to beremoved, the head will reproduce a new base. When aHydra is cut in two transversely, two Hydras result whereformerly there was only one. Even three or more Hydrasmay arise when a Hydra has been cut into so many pieces.Where other conditions are favorable to life, you canhardly kill a Hydra by mutilation. A trace of this i Fig. 195.
