Product Overview
The STARFISH (ASTERIAS) WATER VASCULAR SYSTEM – ECHINODERMATA CHART is a meticulously designed educational tool that visually represents the intricate water vascular system of starfish (Asterias). This chart serves as an essential reference for understanding the unique anatomical features of echinoderms, particularly their hydraulic-based locomotion and feeding mechanisms. The high-resolution illustration highlights key components such as the madreporite, stone canal, ring canal, radial canals, and tube feet, providing a clear and accurate depiction of this specialized biological system. The chart is printed on durable laminated paper, ensuring longevity and resistance to moisture, making it suitable for frequent use in laboratory and classroom settings. Its precise labeling and detailed artwork facilitate effective learning and teaching of echinoderm anatomy, supporting both introductory and advanced studies in marine biology and zoology.
