Echinoderms are commonly known as "spiny-skinned animals." This group includes familiar marine creatures such as starfish (or sea stars), sea urchins, sand dollars, sea cucumbers, and brittle stars. They are characterized by their radial symmetry and a water vascular system, which aids in movement and feeding.

What does echinoderms and deuterostomes indicate about their relationship with other animals?
Echinoderms and deuterostomes share a fundamental evolutionary relationship, as echinoderms are a subgroup within the deuterostome clade. This indicates that both groups, along with chordates and hemichordates, share a common ancestor, highlighting their evolutionary link. Deuterostomes are characterized by their embryonic development, where the anus forms before the mouth, a feature that distinguishes them from protostomes. This shared developmental pattern suggests that echinoderms and deuterostomes have diverged from a common lineage, influencing their anatomical and physiological traits.
