Water withdrawn from the canals make suction effect

Water returned the suction is released.

Sexual ReproductionIndividuals either male or femalesexual reproduction

Fertilization occurs externally producing larvaOver 2 million eggs but few surviveLarva have bands of cilia used in swimming

and feeding.left side becomes the oral surface which faces

down, and the right side becomes the aboral surface, which faces up.

Sexual Reproduction

Page 17: Ss Pwrpnt

Asexual ReproductionAsexual

reproductionFission: the division

of the bodyThe reproduction of

missing body parts many sea stars can

regenerate a lost portion only if some part of the central disk is present.

Food ConsumptionExtend or contract its tube

feetOral surface/mouth: center

of the underside of the disc Anus: upper side of the

body Preys on:

worms, Crustaceans bivalves.

Their tube feet pull a bivalve apart.

They extend their stomach out through their mouths

Digestive juices and cilia help digestion
