Sea urchins are members of the phylum Echinodermata‚ which also includes sea stars‚ sea cucumbers‚ brittle stars‚ and crinoids. Like other echinoderms‚ they have five-fold symmetry (called pentamerism) and move by means of hundreds of tiny‚ transparent‚ adhesive "tube feet". The symmetry is not obvious in the living animal‚ but is easily visible in the dried test. Echinodermate means "spiny skin" in Greek. Specifically‚ the term "sea urchin" refers to the "regular echinoids"‚ which are symmetrical

How Organism Evolved Physiologically Cassi Verkade How Organism Evolved Physiologically Organisms adapt to their environment but what happens when an organism’s surroundings and environment change? Physiological ecology is the study and understanding of that mechanism of living organisms and how living things work. Physiological ecology arises with an understanding of the influence of temperatures. Temperature‚ along with others‚ is one of the most important factors of Physiological ecology
