Which Female stars who died in sea accidents?
The closest to this category- boating- maritime accidents- would be the famous Lillian Russell, who died in l922 ( inland, in Pittsburgh, PA- she is buried in the Allegheny Memorial park)- She had some complications from a fall off a ladder or gangway getting on and off a ship. A ship-related accident, but certainly not of Titanic proportions!- not a ship-wreck proper. Somewhat oddly- another show woman- an opera singer- Lillian Nordica- died of complications ( some sort of exposure to the cold) from a ship accident in or near what is now Indonesia.- this was in l9l4. Nordica was an operatic star, not an actress in the general sense. Miss Russell did comic opera ( such as Gilbert and Sullivan) and also acted on stage. I do not know if she was in movies...

How does the water vascular system work?
Water enters the system through the sieve plate, and then flows through the ring canal around the mouth. From the ring canal the water flows through the radial canal in the feet.

The ampulla regulates fluid pressure so that each tube foot may extend or retract, hang on or let go.
