because their embryos are convinient to study
- each female have millions of eggs that can be fertilized in vitro
- embryos at 48h of development forms a small larvae with all major organs formed : nerve cells, guts, mesodermal squeletton, imune cells etc ...
This is a great advantage, lots of experiments can be done in a short time
- synchronous development : each egg fertlised at a given time and at a given temperature will develop at the very same rate, so lots and lots of camprable embryos can be observed in each experiment (not the same with mouse)
- they are transparent thus easyly observable under a microscope, well suited for all forms of stainings
- Scientists have tools to perform loss and gain of function (shut down or overexpress a specific gene during development)
- Genome of an American specie (S Purpuratus)is fully sequenced, other species will soon have their genome sequenced as well
- They are non chordate deuterostomes. This makes urchins in an evolutionary point of view much closer cousins to human than drosophila (fly) which is as well extensively studied in embryology - roughly : results found in sea urchin may be more likely to reflect a situation found in vertebrates than those found in drosophila
etc etc ...
one major drawback of sea urchins is that its long life cycle (env 2 years) cannot permit the generation of mutant strains (no genetic tools like in mouse zebrafish or drosophila)

Echinoderms are kept under kingdom: Animalia
Karl Ernst Von Baer
Zoology.
Well echinoderms prefer post blowjob tail because they have very small anus' so it can be very painful for them without lubricant.
Echinoderms such as starfish and similar marine animals with radially symmetrical bodies have bone-like calcareous skeletal plates in their skin
embryology has an important role in the animals as it tell us the ontogenic development of an organism.it helps us to understand how an embryo undergoes different changes to reach the adult stage...i.e its growth,cell division and cell differentiation can be well studied in embryology.
