Sea cucumbers are unique marine animals known for their elongated bodies and leathery skin. They play a crucial role in the ocean ecosystem by recycling nutrients and organic matter on the seafloor, which helps maintain sediment health and promotes overall marine biodiversity. Additionally, they are harvested for their culinary and medicinal properties, particularly in Asian cuisine and traditional medicine, where they are valued for their supposed health benefits. Their ability to regenerate lost body parts also makes them a subject of scientific interest in studies on tissue regeneration.
