Arctic invertebrates include a variety of species such as Arctic krill, sea cucumbers, and various types of polychaete worms. These organisms play crucial roles in the marine ecosystem, serving as key food sources for higher trophic levels, including fish and seabirds. Additionally, many Arctic invertebrates have adapted to extreme cold and varying ice conditions, showcasing unique physiological and behavioral traits. Their presence is vital for maintaining the ecological balance in Arctic waters.

all sorts. there are 4 animal kingdoms for arctic animals Technically the kingdom is Animalia (animals), but yeah. There are birds, mammals, all sorts of invertebrates. "Arctic animals" isn´t really a taxonomic group. ;)
shells are important to some invertebrates groups because for some of them, that's their home
Arctic moss plants are typically not a primary food source for many animals due to their bitter taste and tough texture. However, invertebrates like springtails or nematodes may feed on Arctic moss. Additionally, in some cases, herbivores like reindeer or Arctic hares may consume Arctic moss when other food sources are scarce.
All invertebrates are ectothermic (cold-blooded) animals.
