The starfish has a two part stomach, the upper pyloric stomach and the lower cardiac stomach. Can you differentiate between the two stomachs on your specimen? In the starfish arms you should find both digestive glands and gonads

Answer:

Starfish have a unique digestive system with a mouth at the center of their underside and an anus on their upper surface. Food can be brought into the stomach through the mouth or, in many species, the cardiac stomach can be extended out through the mouth to digest food outside the body. They then use their tube feet to pass the food to the stomach.
