How many body openings do echinoderns have?
Adult echinoderms only have one body opening. Their larvae have two.
Which animal has radial symmetry?
Cnidarians are true radially symmetrical animals. They include jellyfish. Echinoderms (like starfish) also display radial symmetry. It is important to note that the larvae of echinoderms are bilaterally symmetrical and that Echinoderms evolved from a bilaterally symmetrical group.
Why do many benthic invertebrates produce planktonic larvae?
To aid dispersal of their larvae. To avoid desiccation. To provide food for crustaceans. To help stabilize oyster beds. Benthic invertebrates don't produce planktonic larvae.
Type of symmetry exhibited by echinoderm larvae?
the same type as blue footed underwater donkeys.
What is the apical organ and what is its function?
The apical organ is a sensory structure found in the larvae of some marine invertebrates, such as echinoderms. It helps the larvae to sense light, gravity, and other environmental cues, aiding in their navigation and orientation in the water column.
What happens to echinoderm larvae when they metamorphose into adults?
Echinoderms have swimming larvae that are bilaterally symmetrical, with left and right sides, but they do not 'develop into' bottom-living adult echinoderms, which are radially symmetrical, often star-shaped. The juvenile (young adult), radial from the start, grows from a group of stem cells within the larva. It gradually moves to the outside of the larva, and the larva and juvenile develop side-by-side. In most cases, the larva eventually settles and shrivels, and the juvenile crawls away. In one species of starfish, however, the juvenile drops off the swimming larva, which can go on swimming for a further three months.
Are maggots and caterpillars examples of larvae or arachnids?
They are larvae
What are larvae called?
I'm not entirely sure, but I think that larvae are called 'larvae'.
What does larvae mean?
larvae is the baby of insects, for example, ant larvae, bee larvae, etc. etc.
Can dragonfly larvae have babies?
no, because the larvae ARE the baby
How many body openings does mollusca have?
The famous animal the "Porifera", has 6 body openings.
