Starfishes do not possess a well-defined sense organs. However, they have tube feet, spines and pedicellariae that are able to sense temperature, touch, light, orientation, and the water around them.
Starfish do not release energy into food. Starfish obtain energy from food.
light.
starfish dont really have eyes the have eyespots like some worms. starfish cant see with their eyespots but they can sense sunlight
That made perfect sense
that makes no sense
Starfish aren't fish. so they should be called sea stars, they are invertebrates in the phylum echinodermata. if that makes sense and explaining is too long.
Yes, a starfish is segmented into arms or rays, which radiate out from a central disc. Each arm contains intricate structures that help the starfish move, sense its environment, and capture prey.
No a starfish is not a fish. Starfish, also known as sea stars, are echinoderms belonging to the class Asteroidea. The names "starfish" are also used in a broader sense to include the closely related brittle stars, which make up the class Ophiuroidea.
A starfish with more than five legs is often referred to as a "multiple-armed starfish" or "polymorphic starfish." While most starfish typically have five arms, some species can naturally exhibit more due to genetic mutations or environmental factors. The term "asteroid" can also be used in a broader sense to describe starfish in general, regardless of the number of arms.
A starfish has a great ability to ensure that they don't get too hot or cold. They will reserve energy and use it as they need it. If they are in cold waters, they use more energy to warm themselves up.
The eyespots on each ray of a starfish are called ocelli. These simple light-sensitive organs help the starfish detect changes in light and dark, aiding in navigation and predator avoidance. However, they do not provide detailed images; instead, they primarily sense the intensity of light.
Starfish are sensitive to touch, light, temperature, orientation and the status of the water around them. The tube feet are sensitive to chemicals, enabling the starfish to detect odor sources such as food.
