Echinoderms are invertebrates with an internal skeleton and a system of fluid-filled tubes called a water vascular system. There are four major groups of echinoderms: sea stars, brittle stars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers.
Echinoderms are invertebrates with an internal skeleton and a system of fluid-filled tubes called water vascular system.
Echinoderms have a unique type of tissue called coelomic epithelium, which lines the internal body cavity (coelom) and performs various functions including nutrient exchange, waste removal, and support for internal organs.
Vascular tissue!! Woot woot!! This is some VERY EXCITING stuff!!! =DDDDDDDD
Echinoderms, such as sea stars and sea urchins, have an endoskeleton made of hard plates called ossicles that lie inside their bodies. Although this endoskeleton is internal, it functions similarly to an exoskeleton by providing support and protection. It allows echinoderms to control their body shape and movement, just like an exoskeleton does for other invertebrates.

Echinoderms are not classified in phylum Chordata. They belong to their own phylum called Echinodermata. Chordates, on the other hand, are characterized by the presence of a notochord, which echinoderms lack.
No, crabs are not echinoderms. Echinoderms are a group of marine animals that include starfish, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers, characterized by their radial symmetry. Crabs belong to a different group called crustaceans, which includes animals like lobsters, shrimp, and barnacles.
They, along with starfish, are called echinoderms, pronounced eek-AYE-no-derms.
they put it in their mouth and suck on it with tinny teeth called dumb axes
A spiny skinned invertebrate is called a sand dollar. That is because they are are echinoderms (a type of invertebrate),
The Spiny skin sea-animals also known as Echinoderms consist of about 6000 species. They are commonly grouped together as starfish and sea urchins.
