Animals, The defect, a rare ‘supersalamander’, possesses a special power. The amphibian can be almost all his body parts back grow after he is hurt. No wonder scientists are busy looking for the genes in which the superpower is. American biologists succeeded for the first time in for a piece of the secret to reveal.
The defect is – a pinkish-white, black or brown salamander that looks a bit like a large tadpole that is always smiling – is not the only one in the animal kingdom, which itself can recover. Regeneration, the biological phenomenon in which damaged parts almost fully restored, is a property that also can be attributed to, for example, earthworms, walking branches and starfish. But the defect seems to be practically unlimited in its abilities.

The supersalamander can not only damaged limbs to repair, but also internal organs regenerate. As long as his head remains intact, he manages to have a replica of almost all of his body parts to grow. the
Rare
The particular amphibians in the wild, especially rare and live only in Mexico and in captivity. Especially in laboratories, they are numerous because of their interesting characteristics. Especially for biologists is the animal particularly popular.
to understand how the healing powers of the defect work, tried them and the DNA of the amphibian accurately. A feat, because the genome of the salamander is about ten times as large as that of the man.
