What surface is the madreporite of a starfish visible?
aboral!!!!!
i hate stupid people who get on here and answer things wrong!!!
How many radial canals does the starfish have?
The radial canals carry water to the ampullae and provide suction to the tube feet.
No an octopus is a mollusk, just like squids, clams, and oysters. Echinoderms are sea stars, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, sea lilies, sand dollars, basket stars, brittle stars, and feather stars.
Where is the mouth of an echinoderm found?
Usually in the middle underneath the animal. However the mount can also migrate forward, to the side of the animal in an irregular echinoid.
Are echinoderms ectothermic or endothermic?
they are ectothermic because their body temp. is the same as their environment.
An echinoderm has no spine and either lives in water or terrestrial habitats, they have no brain or skull either. Their skin is made of tiny plates that give it a rough and sometimes spiny feel
Ex:
Starfish, sea urchins and over 50,000 more
Echinoderms have what type of digestive system?
Some of them are predators, most starfish are, they eat slow moving creatures like barnacles or clams
A few filter feed
And some eat algae scraped off of rocks

What is the organ for breathing of echinoderms?
On the ventral side of an echinoderm (say, a sea star, for example) there are hundreds of tiny feet arranged into rows on each appendage. These are called tube feet. By varying the internal water pressure, the echinoderm can extend and contract its tube feet for locomotion, food collection, and respiration
How many species of echinoderms are there?
Approx. 7, 000 species that fall into five clades(sub-groups)
What are the adaptations of echinoderm?
First, they are incredibly good at catching and killing their food with very little movement. they have poison which can incredibly help them survive and thrive.

Are brittle stars ossicles apparent?
Brittle stars are echinoderms with a skeleton of embedded calcite ossicles (little bones) which fuse to form an armor plate. The plates are covered by the epidermis, so that you can tell where the plates/ossicles are, but you cannot see them directly.
