Pearls of Wisdom
- They should be called sea stars; they have no brain and no blood (they use sea water to pump nutrients through their nervous system).
- If they lose one of their limbs, they can grow it back, but it might take up to a year.
- Some species of starfish (sea stars) can have up to 40 arms.
