Brittle stars are omnivores, feeding on a variety of food including small invertebrates, detritus, and organic matter. They use their long, agile arms to capture and bring food particles towards their mouth located on the underside of their central body disk.
No, ants do not make stars when they eat each other. Ants are social insects that have a complex colony hierarchy and behavior. Cannibalism may occur among ants, especially in times of food scarcity or stress, but it does not result in the creation of stars.
Crown of thorns sea stars primarily feed on coral polyps. They use their numerous arms to pry open coral polyps and digest the tissue inside. This feeding behavior can have devastating effects on coral reefs if their populations are not controlled.
Sea stars feed on different types of prey, such as bivalve mollusks, snails, and barnacles. One of their favorite foods is clam species. They use their tube feet to pry open the clam's shell and then push their stomach out to digest the soft tissues inside.
Brittle stars have long, flexible arms that help them move quickly, while basket stars have branched arms that are used for filter feeding. Brittle stars typically have five arms, while basket stars can have 10 or more arms that branch out extensively. Additionally, basket stars are usually found in deeper waters compared to brittle stars.
