Phylum: Echinodermata





Echinoderms exhibit radial symmetry (their organs are arranged in a circle, or like the spokes of the wheel), have an endoskeleton (an internal support), and typically have many tube feet and a water vascular system (instead of muscles). Echinoderms always live in salt water. Some of the members of this phylum include sea stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, and sea cucumbers.
