Respiration - The starfish has a water vascular system in which the repiratory exchange between oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs. * The tube feet of the starfish act like gills. The Oxygen enters the water vascular system through the tube feet as the carbon dioxide exits the body. http://intro.bio.umb.edu/111-112/112s99Lect/bodyplans/starfish.html
