Starfish

Starfishes Live On For Many Years Is In Bewteen 200-300 Years Old

Sometimes. A good test for this is to tickle one gently with your finger. If he hugs you tightly, this is a good sign. However if begins to scream and the police turn up, get out of there. That starfish is too shy for you.

the starfish does not have a brain it is made up of nerve cells that control it's functions A starfish doesn't have a brain in its head like we do. Instead their entire nervous system acts like a distributed brain. So, it has a brain, just not like ours.

The eyespots on the starfish are located at the ends of the rays, the five finger-like structures. Therefore, there are five eyespots. The eyespots are not like humans' eyes- starfishes' eyespots only sense light and dark.

the can't have sex

Who ever wrote that before this is stupid. Starfish can partake in both sexual and asexual reproduction. Sorry but I don't know the answer.

Starfish are well known for their powers of regeneration. A complete new animal can grow from a small fragment such as an arm. In some species (Linckia multifora and Echinaster luzonicus) one of the arms will virtually pull itself away, regenerates and forms a new animal. Autotomy (self amputation) usually is a protective function, losing the body part to escape a predator rather than being eaten. But here it serves as a form of asexual reproduction. In other species of sea stars (Allostichaster polyplax and Coscinasterias calamaria) the body is broken into unequal parts (= fission) then the missing limbs regenerate.

Most lobsters are nocturnal (most active at night). They are predators that eat crabs, clams, worms, snails, mussels, flounder, and other lobsters. from this site -http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/invertebrates/crustacean/Lobsterprintout.shtml

The only requirement starfish have of their environment is seawater. They have a unique ability to adapt to changing climates and environments. They can handle anywhere from frigid arctic to tropical waters, and from intertidal areas to almost 20,000 feet deep.

The functions of tube feet are for feeding and moving. The starfish climbs over a clam (food) and pry open it's shell to eat. The vascular system moves the tube feet, so it could pull itself along very slowly.

we are both living
we both have eukaryotic cells
we both have symmetry
we both hate the S.O.A.B. who wrote this Q

there are over 1,500 species of starfish in the world.

Starfish can actually swim up to 8mph (miles per hour).

While most starfish have only five arms, there are many with five to fifteen arms. Luidia ciliaris have seven. Solasteridae have 10-15. The Antarctic Labidiaster annulatus sometimes have up to fifty arms and other starfish have an abnormal amount of arms due to abnormal development and defects.

Starfish can reproduce asexually (by themselves) or sexually (with a partner). They use a process called fission to reproduce asexually, and in this process, simply stated, they break pieces of themselves off and that becomes their offspring. However, they do have sexual organs and if they find a mate they can create young with them.

The starfish is the most unusual well known creature. The mouth is in the center of the under side surface. There are suckers on the bottom of each one of the five arms. There are also spines on each arm.

It is not known which species of starfish has 12 arms. Most starfish have 5 arms but some starfish who have birth defects can have more.

The radial canals carry water to the ampullae and provide suction to the tube feet.

in the sea....starfish don't live on land.(:

To poop.

yes salmon eat krill till they blow up. personaly, i think that krill are delisious and foolishy i ate too many krill and became very fat like the salmon. you can also use the salmon to help you with homework becase when you cook them they make you think and give you protein which is brain food. yes salmon eat krill till they blow up. personaly, i think that krill are delisious and foolishy i ate too many krill and became very fat like the salmon. you can also use the salmon to help you with homework becase when you cook them they make you think and give you protein which is brain food.

why do people put starfish in the window

They eat calms, oysters, mussels, small fish, sea snails , and barnacles

A starfish is a marine animal (echinoderm) that has five or more arms, so it is shaped like a star. Because it is not a fish, some now refer to it as a sea star. It has a hard, craggy upper shell and hundreds of sticky "feet" on its bottom side that let it attach itself to rocks.
