five-six, they could have more depending on how many arms they have.

it's tube feet.
Yes, the tube feet of a living sea star move in coordination to help with locomotion, feeding, and attachment. The tube feet are connected to a water vascular system that controls their movement through hydraulic pressure. This allows the sea star to efficiently navigate its environment and capture prey.
The tube feet of a sea star move through a hydraulic system known as the water vascular system. This system uses water pressure to control the extension and retraction of the tube feet, allowing the sea star to move and manipulate objects.
A sea star moves by using tiny tube feet located on the underside of its arms. These tube feet extend and contract, creating a hydraulic pressure that helps the sea star crawl or glide along surfaces.
No, sea stars use their tube feet to pry open the clam's shell and then evert their stomach into the clam to digest its soft tissues. Without the use of tube feet, the sea star would not be able to access the clam's flesh to consume it.
the type of feet used by a sea star is called tube feet
Ampulla
A sea star (starfish) gets its oxygen through diffusion into the tube feet.
Interconnected canals and hollow tube feet work together in a sea star's water vascular system, which helps with movement, feeding, and respiration. Sea stars use water pressure to extend and retract their tube feet, enabling them to grip surfaces and capture prey.
