How does a starfish feed on a tightly closed clam?
Why can a starfish move equally well in any direction?
How does water flow through the water vascular system of a starfish?
What advantage do free swimming larvae provide for the echinoderm?

I'm sorry, I'm a dolphin biologist, and have had no invertebrate zoology
classes. I would suggest checking your local library, or at least an
encyclopedia for the information. Alternatively, find a marine biology school
in your area (or somewhere) with invertebrate experts.
