A perforated plate permits the entry of water into the ambulacral system in echinoderms is 3) Madreporite.
Phylum Echinodermata:
- Any member of the phylum Echinodermata is an echinoderm.
- The adult sea lilies, also known as "stone lilies," starfish, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, and sea cucumbers are distinguishable by their (often five-point) radial symmetry.
- Echinoderms all share two main traits that distinguish them from all other organisms, despite the fact that they may seem very different from one another: a water circulatory system and five-sided radial symmetry.
- An echinoderm's body is covered in an intricate network of canals known as the water vascular system.
About Water vascular system:
- A central ring canal and radial canals that run along each arm make up the distinctive ambulacral or water vascular system that is found in echinoderms.
- These structures' water circulation promotes gaseous exchange, as well as nourishment, predation, and movement.
- The aqueous vascular system also extends as tube feet from perforations in the skeleton.
- Depending on the amount of water in the arm's system, these tube feet may expand or compress.
- The animal's tube feet can either protrude or retract by applying hydrostatic pressure.
- On the echinoderm's aboral side, water enters the madreporite.
- The water then enters the stone canal, which transports water into the ring canal, from there.
- A pentaradial animal has five radial canals, and these canals transport water into the ampullae, which contain tube feet through which the water travels.
- The radial canals are connected by the ring canal.
