6. 6 II) Feeding & Digestion A)Most sea stars are carnivorous B)Sea urchins & sea cucumbers are herbivorous or filter feeders C)Coelomic fluid 1)Fluid that fills body cavity 2)Transports nutrients & oxygen

7. 7 II) Feeding & Digestion D)Most echinoderms lack a circulatory system 1)Gas exchange across small, branched projections of body wall in sea stars & sea urchins 2)Respiratory trees in sea cucumbers 1) Extensions of the gut

8. 8 III) Nervous System & Behavior A)Presence of a net nerve, like cnidarians B)Complex behaviors nevertheless 1)Righting of body after being turned over 2)Camouflage

9. 9 IV) Reproduction & Life History A)Separate sexes in most species B)Individuals spawn all at once into water, ensuring some fertilizations C)Development in plankton D)Ciliated larvae, characteristic of each group 6
