(In common usage, these names are also often applied to ophiuroids, which are correctly referred to as brittle stars or basket stars.) Starfish are also known as asteroids because they form the taxonomic class Asteroidea. About 1,900 species of starfish live on the seabed, and are found in all the world's oceans, from warm, tropical zones to frigid, polar regions. They can occur from the intertidal zone down to abyssal depths, at 6,000 m (20,000 ft) below the surface. Starfish are echinoderms and typically have a central disc and usually five arms, though some species have a larger number of arms. The aboral or upper surface may be smooth, granular or spiny, and is covered with overlapping plates. Many species are brightly coloured in various shades of red or orange, while others are blue, grey or brown. Starfish have tube feet operated by a hydraulic system and a mouth at the centre of the oral or lower surface. They are opportunistic feeders and are mostly predators on benthic invertebrates. Several species have specialized feeding behaviours including eversion of their stomachs and suspension feeding. They have complex life cycles and can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Most can regenerate damaged parts or lost arms and they can shed arms as a means of def ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2026 13:42:01 -0600 From: "Homestead Guide" Subject: The Self-Sufficient Backyard The Self-Sufficient Backyard http://thriveat.quest/L9c06rfkzwhxxlCzc7aM78_Wlz0Ip-9rBFbC-fjoerGEh95i0g http://thriveat.quest/MpJa_ltBsvVbtfLIm5r2orEEOTkFOOtwvoHfTEOB6BZoipKPGQ ough starfish do not have many well-defined sense organs, they do perceive touch, light, temperature, orientation and the status of the water around them. The tube feet, spines and pedicellariae are sensitive to touch. The tube feet, especially those at the tips of the rays, are also sensitive to chemicals, enabling the starfish to detect odour sources such as food. There are eyespots at the ends of the arms, each one made of 80b200 simple ocelli composed of pigmented epithelial cells. Individual photoreceptor cells are present in other parts of their bodies and respond to light. Whether they advance or retreat depends on the species.

While a starfish lacks a centralized brain, it has a complex nervous system with a nerve ring around the mouth and a radial nerve running along the ambulacral region of each arm parallel to the radial canal. The peripheral nerve system consists of two nerve nets: one in the epidermis and the other in the lining of the coelomic cavity, which are the sensory and motor systems respectively. Neurons passing through the dermis join the two. Both the ring and radial nerves function in movement and sensory. The sensory component is supplied with information from the sensory organs while the motor nerves control the tube feet and musculature. If one arm detects something attractive, it becomes dominant and temporarily over-rides the other arms to initiate movement towards it.

Circulatory and gas exchange system The body cavity contains the circulatory or haemal system. The vessels form three rings: one around the mouth (the hyponeural haemal ring), another around the digestive system (the gastric ring), and the third near the aboral surface (the genital ring). The heart beats about six times a minute and is at the apex of a vertical channel (the axial vessel) that connects the three rings. Blood does not contain a pigment such as heme, but is probably used to transport nutrients around the body. Gas exchange mainly takes place through gills known as papulae, which are thin-walled bulges along the aboral surface of the arms. Oxygen is transferred from these to the coelomic fluid, which moves gas aro ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2026 07:53:22 -0600 From: "Member Surveys" Subject: You've been chosen!

The dermis contains an endoskeleton of calcium carbonate components known as ossicles. These are honeycomb-like structures composed of calcite microcrystals arranged in a lattice. They vary in form, from flat plates to granules to spines, and cover the aboral surface. Some are specialised structures such as the madreporite (the entrance to the water vascular system), pedicellariae, and paxillae. Paxillae are umbrella-like structures found on starfish that live buried in substrate. The edges of adjacent paxillae meet to form a false cuticle with a water cavity beneath in which the madreporite and delicate gill structures are protected. The ossicles are located under the epidermal layer, even those emerging externally. Several groups of starfish, including Valvatida and Forcipulatida, possess pedicellariae. These are scissor-like ossicles at the tip of the spine which displace organisms from resting on the starfish's surface. Some species like Labidiaster annulatus and Novodinia antillensis use their pedicellariae to catch prey. There may also be papulae, thin-walled protrusions of the body cavity that reach through the body wall into the surrounding water. These serve a respiratory function. The structures are supported by collagen fibres set at right angles to each other and arranged in a three-dimensional web with the ossicles and papulae in the interstices. This arrangement enables both easy flexion of the arms and the rapid onset of stiffness and rigidity required for some actions performed under str ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2026 10:03:52 +0100 From: "StaySecure Priority" Subject: IMMEDIATE ACTION: Payment Declined - Account at Risk IMMEDIATE ACTION: Payment Declined - Account at Risk http://easewave.digital/K5JwgafTkVfOxhPDxxlw1fZFM3WLcLlNCE9nIlRR1WAA6LCizg http://easewave.digital/QpDq-xmBtiKZHs-WZdW0K-8ZzsQKkc-QVLNvMW0G-_PFFzmugQ a with extensive salt deposits. Salzach means "salt river", while Salzburg means "salt castle", both taking their names from the German word Salz, salt. Hallstatt was the site of the world's first salt mine. The town gave its name to the Hallstatt culture that began mining for salt in the area in about 800 BC. Around 400 BC, the townsfolk, who had previously used pickaxes and shovels, began open pan salt making. During the first millennium BC, Celtic communities grew rich trading salt and salted meat to Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome in exchange for wine and other luxuries. The word salary comes from the Latin word for salt. The reason for this is unknown; a persistent modern claim that the Roman Legions were sometimes paid in salt is baseless. The word salad literally means "salted", and comes from the ancient Roman practice of salting leaf vegetables. Wars have been fought over salt. Venice won the Salt War (1304) with Padua over supplying the product in certain areas, and the War of Ferrara (1482b1484) for the same reason. It played a role in the American Revolution and the San Elizario Salt War. Cities on overland trade routes grew rich by levying duties, and towns like Liverpool flourished on the export of salt extracted from the salt mines of Cheshire. Governments have at different times imposed salt taxes on their peoples. The voyages of Christopher Columbus are said to have been financed from salt production in southern Spain. The oppressive salt tax in France was one of the causes of the French Revolution. After being repealed, this tax was reimposed by Napoleon when he became emperor to pay for his foreign wars, and was not abolished until 1946. In 1930, Mahatma Gandhi led a crowd of 100,000 protestors on the "Dandi March" or "Salt Satyagraha", during which they made their own salt from the sea as a demonstration of their opposition to the colonial salt tax. This act of civil disobedience inspired numerous Indians and transformed the Indian independence movement into a natio ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V14 #17312 ***********************************************
