Sea star.

Sea stars have, usually, five arms, which are wide around the body disc and ever
closer as they move away from it. Echinoderms are radially symmetrical for and
present, very often, very bright colors. At the bottom of each tube- arms are located
grooves, whose openings are located in tube feet, forming double rows; these are
normally provided with suction cups and serve for locomotion. Diverticula of the
stomach and sexual organs are also housed in the arms. Although most species have
five arms, some specimens have many more. In other cases, the body grows and
expands so among the five arms, which seems to become a pentagonal.

later disappeared and led to the tail ending in a tail fin located in a horizontal plane
(unlike fish in which is vertical).

light gray almost white at the bottom. This makes them difficult to see from above and
below the swim. The upper and lower jaws elongated give these animals the name
"bottle nose". The real nose however is the blowhole above the head. His face shows a
"feature smile".
Adults ranging in length from 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 p) and weight from 150-650 kg (3301430 pounds) with the rams which are slightly larger and considerably heavier than
