  4. Dermal brachiae

  5. pedicellariae

New cards
2

function of aboral madreporite

water intake and exit to control volume in water vascular system

New cards
3

dermal branchaiae

cutaneous respiratory structures

New cards
4

pedicellariae

structure that clear debris from the skins surface

New cards
5

components of the endoskeleton and how does form follow function here

  1. ossicles connected by “catch collagen” which is mutable (solid to liquid)

  2. maintain posture with no additional effort

New cards
6

what are function of the water-vascular system

  1. excretion

New cards
18

unusual defense mechanism of sea cucumber

self - evisceration = respiratory trees come out so predators ear that then reproduce them

New cards
19

sea cucumbers involved in commensalism?

animals live inside cloaca (fish)

New cards
