Does a starfish lay eggs give birth to another starfish and how many babies do they have at a time?

Answer 1

Famales starfish lay eggs.

Answer 2

Starfish do not lay eggs like other animals; therefore, zero times. Uniquely, starfish are able to reproduce both sexually and asexually.

Asexual reproduction in starfish generally involves the dismemberment of an appendage that grows into a exact copy of the parent. This form of reproduction is not ideal, and only occurs when an appendage is lost (not on purpose).

Sexual reproduction occurs through a process called spawning. Rather than lay eggs on solid ground, starfish of both sexes release millions of free-floating sperm and eggs into the water through gonads, sexual organs on a starfish's arms.

Starfish may undergo spawning multiple times in one breeding season, dependent on the species.

Answer 3

The female star fish lays eggs (unfertilized) and the male senses the eggs and releases sperms into the area. Then the egg and the sperm gets together and makes a baby starfish.

Answer 4

2.5 million eggs at one time.

Answer 5

Starfish are born in eggs

Answer 6
