^^ My opinion is similar to what the Anon said, although I don't take the parastic kakuhou theory too far. But it seems like there is a strong benefit to regenerative power when the kagune evolve to the point of developing features (mouth, eyes) that suggest a kind of pseudo-sentience.

When Kanae was decapitated, her tissue unconsciously shot out of her neck, pulled her head back to her body and repaired all the severed bone, muscle and tissue damage almost immediately. It'd make sense if it came out of her body, but the fact that it was the head that reacted suggests the mutated RC cells have vastly increased some subconscious activity in the brain, which also accounts for the talking, eating kagune, and that a high-concentration of RC cells will make ordinary tissue behave like kagune.
