Radial Symmetry
radial symmetry
Because most sea cucumbers crawl along the sea floor, the top surface is slightly different from the bottom one that is constantly pressed against the sea floor. Thus, there is a weak transverse bilateral symmetry.
they have what we call "pentaradial" symmetry, but certain species, such as the sand dollar, and the sea cucumber, have a secondary body symmetry, which is a bilateral symmetry
A sea cucumber exhibits bilateral symmetry, meaning its body can be divided into two identical halves along a single plane, typically through the center. While they have a more elongated and cylindrical shape compared to other echinoderms, their symmetry allows them to have a distinct anterior and posterior end. However, some species may display slight variations in symmetry due to environmental adaptations.
Because the scientists believed it looked like a cucumber and it was under the sea so therefore, a sea cucumber has derived from cucumber-like look.
No a sea cucumber does not have a brain.
no a sea cucumber does not have a backbone.
No. The sea cucumber is, in fact, an echinoderm like the sea urchin.
A sea cucumber is a Herbivore.
The name of the class that sea cucumbers belong to is Holothuroidea.
There are four common names for psolus chitinoids and they are Armoured sea cucumber, Creeping armoured sea cucumber, Slipper sea cucumber and Creeping pedal sea cucumber.
No; sea cucumbers are animals and transparent sea cucumbers are plants.
