Two ways of reproduction

They can reproduce both sexually and asexually. The asexual reproduction of starfish undergoes fission or through the autonomy of arms.  During fission, the central disc of starfish breaks into two pieces. Through those pieces, new missing parts get regenerated. Asexual reproduction can be releasing lava before maturity when starfish get plenty of food supply from their surroundings. By doing so, they can ensure more offspring will survive.
