Summary edit

Description How do sea stars get around? With tube feet! In this closeup of a sunflower star in NOAA's Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, you can see how it uses its tube feet to explore the world around it. In addition to locomotion, sea stars use their tube feet to pass food toward their mouth. (Photo: Steve Lonhart/NOAA)
