Larvae of Sea urchin metamorphose into adults after settling down at bottom of the sea.
- Echinoderms classified as sea urchins are spiky, spherical organisms.
- Although pluteus larvae have bilateral (mirror) symmetry, adult sea urchins have fivefold symmetry.
- The juvenile rudiment, which forms on the left side of the larva and has an axis perpendicular to the larva's, takes several months to fully grow.
- Before the juvenile rudiment may transition into the adult form, test plates form on its left side.
- The larva quickly descends to the bottom and, in as little as an hour, metamorphoses into a young urchin.
- Adults in some species grow to their fullest size in around five years.
