Starfish

The humble starfish (Asterias Forbesii) does not have a regular migratory route. It does however, floop. Where 'flooping' is the action of large numbers of starfish travelling along a similar path.

They have 1,0000 playing 2,000

It is called regeneration

It was an attempt to humiliate and to mock him. He was tried and convicted of the charge of treason, he was accused of claiming that He was a king, though he said his kingdom was not of this world. Because of envy, various members of the Sanhedrin (the religious Jewish leadership of Israel in that day) falsely accused him of treason against Rome. Basically, they felt their position and prestige threatened by him. It was because of this charge he was found guilty in a joke kangaroo court, and as a result of being condemned for this charge, the Roman soldiers thought to mock him and inflict further suffering on Him by jamming a crown of thorns down on his head.

Most species have five arms. They do not have fins.

Think of it this way. In sea star development, the last stage is the late gastrula, as development continues, two pouches (the coelomis sacs) form by outpocketing from the endoderm surrounding the gut. These pouches become part of the coelom (body cavity), and the walls of the lateral pouches become the third germ layer, the mesoderm.

I got this information from my college lab manual, Inquiry Into Life, Thirteenth Edition

Starfish produce a large number of sperms and eggs as they breed with a process called free-spawning. To make the process of the gametes of opposite sexes meet, the starfish will release a chemical that attracts other starfish.

Yes because there is a part of the star fish you can eat.

Yes, Starfish can and do eat each other sometimes.

Dry it. You can air dry it but it will look shrivelled and brown, but if you buy a large pack of washing soda crystals, put a couple of inches in the bottom of a plastic box, put the starfish flat on the crystals then cover the starfish with more crystals until they are at least two inches (5cm) above the highest part of the starfish... DO NOT put an air tight lid on, but a few sheets of kitchen towel held imminent with string to allow water vapours to escape.. Put away in a warm dry place for 8 weeks. Starfish will be dried out but retain it's shape and colour.

i dont know i want you to answer it

They both have to have water to survive. A plant has to have water and if the starfish gets taken out of water for a long period of time it will die.

Starfish eat clams, oysters sand dollars and mussels to get energy.

Other animals cannot inform us of how they feel, nor of why they feel that way.

We do not even know that they have 'feelings', but - having them ourselves - we think thay might. ----- Ooooops ----- It appears that I misunderstood the questioner's use of the word "feel".... they meant to the touch, and not emotionally.

All I can say is that the few I encountered as a child on the Atlantic coast of Ireland were more firm than a fish, but less firm than a crab or lobster.

They also had a rough texture, a bit like sandpaper.

But that is not exactly a scientific sample - about a dozen starfish in the middle of the 1950s in one bay. :-)

Echinoderms can only be found in water, as they are aquatic.

Some characteristics of Echinoderms are:

Hard Skin, have arms or spines, have 5 body parts, organs found towards centre of body.

Examples: Star Fish, Sea Cucumber, Sea Urchin

Starfish have an endoskeleton comprised of many little bones.

Since the term starfish encompasses a whole host of different creatures with different numbers of arms, I presume the answer isn't well defined. All the skeletons I've seen have a huge number of intricate bones, but I haven't seen that many.

Term bones doesn't 'easily' apply to the phylum echinodermata. What solid spines and plates they have are part of their skin, and what gives their bodies their rigidity is a 'water vascular system' or a Hydro-skeleton' or a 'pneumatic skeleton', which depends on water pressure to make it function.

They live in the ocean so they stay wet. They are always surrounded by water and they absorb it. If they are above water for too long then they dry out.

Never, when the lose a leg it falls of and then in a couple of days their is a new starfish or sea star. Then they grow their arm back.The have no genders or brains or hearts or even blood!

yes starfish do have suction cups but they are only so small that they can't be seen with the human eye.

well from what Ive researched fish cant eat starfish because starfish are poisonous its kind of ironic because a turtle can eat jellyfish and jellyfish are also poisonous but i guess nature has its ways

Yes, starfish do eat sea urchins.

They wrap themselves around the sea urchin and evert their stomach against it to dissolve away the flesh and shell. Eventually when the flesh and shell is dissolved by the starfish stomach acids, the starfish eats the inside of the sea urchin.

Yes, some species of starfish are considered to be dangerous. The crown of thorns, sun star, spiny sun star, and the leather star are all poisonous starfish. They can be harmful and even deadly to humans.
