According to the book "The crayfish of Missouri" written by William L. Pflieger "The mouth parts of a crayfish consists of five parts of overlapping structures, each with its own role in crushing and shredding the food before it is ingested." "the largest of these structures are the heavy tooth-like mandibles."

If a crayfish lost an appendage, it would likely experience difficulties in movement, feeding, and defense, as these appendages play crucial roles in its daily survival. However, crayfish have a remarkable ability to regenerate lost limbs over time, allowing them to recover functionally. The regeneration process may take several weeks to months, depending on the species and environmental conditions. During this period, the crayfish might be more vulnerable to predators and challenges in its environment.
an appendage modified for feeding, situated in pairs behind the mazillae.
Crayfish have the ability to regenerate practically any appendage that gets broken off. They can regrow legs, claws,antennae, even eyes if they happen to get snipped off in a fight.
Shrimp's way of feeding is almost the same as the lobster's way of eating. It has two very tiny claws that it uses for eating.
it is the antenna, antennule, rostrum, and the maxillipeds (feeding appendages).
Which appendage.
Appendage is a noun.
Yes, crayfish can have symbiotic relationships with various organisms. One notable example is their association with certain types of algae and microorganisms that live on their bodies, which can provide them with additional nutrients and help maintain a healthy environment. Additionally, some crayfish may have mutualistic relationships with fish or other aquatic animals that benefit from the crayfish's presence, such as by feeding on parasites found on the crayfish.
Without much more information the question can not be answered accurately. Crayfish are scavengers and guppies are not their natural prey. If the crayfish is small enough and your guppies don't have long flowing fins then the guppies may well be too fast for the crayfish to catch. So the answer then would be none. Are you feeding the crays dead guppies? If so I would add one and see how long it takes the crayfish to eat it. Then I would add more and more dead guppies one at a time as the crayfish devours them. As the crayfish grows so it will eat more.
No. Platypuses do not eat fruit. They are carnivores, feeding entirely on freshwater invertebrates such as crayfish, insect larvae and annelid worms.
The seeing eye dog was an appendage the the blind man.
I think from disecting a crayfish in my Biology class, that crayfish have 5 sets of different appendages. All in all, the crayfish we disected had 36 actual appendages. Appendages are areas on an animal that "stick out". Kind of like our arms and legs except crustaceans and other animals have more, and can grow them back if they are cut off. Like I said, total, our crayfish had 36 appendages from anterior to posterior. There are a total of 38 appendages, 19 on each side.
