The main difference between asteroids and ophiuroids is the way that the rays, or arms, attach to the body. In ophiuroids, the arms are not joined to each other and the body and arms are clearly separated, but in the asteroids the arms are joined to each other and the boundary between arms and the central disc is blurred.

How do Ophiuroidea eat?
Ophiuroids are carnivores, filter feeders, and scavengers; those of some species use more then one method to obtain food. Mucus on the tube feet can trap phytoplankton, bacteria, and even medusae from the water or particles from sediment that are moved by the tube feet to the mouth; some ophiuroids capture small crustaceans or worms by looping the organisms with their rays. The mouth is surrounded by five jaws and leads to an esophagus that connects to the sac-like stomach. The stomach fills much of the disc, but does not extend into the arms, and ends blindly (that is, it has no anus). Digestion occurs within 10 pouches or infolds of the stomach.

What are the 3 types of echinoderms?
Echinoderms are a phylum of marine animals. I dont know what is ment by 'the three types' as there are 5 living classes : Crinoidea (Sea lilies), Asteroidea (starfish), Ophiuroidea (brittle stars ), Echinoidea (sea urchins and sand dollars) and Holothuroidea (sea cucumbers). The most commonly observed being Asteroidea, Echinodea and Holothuroide as Crinoidea are generally benthic sessile creatures and most Ophiuroidea are benthic and photophobic so even the littoral ones are rarely seen during the day,

Differences between sea urchins and sea cucumbers?
Echinoderms are a category of sea invertebrates; there are 5 groups of echinoderms, Asteroidea, Crinoidea, Echinoidea, Holothuroidea and Ophiuroidea. A sea cucumber is a holothuroidea; their lengthy body surrounded by leathery skin identifies holothuroideas. A sea lily is a crinoidea; crinoidea feed off the seabed with a mouth at the top of their body.
