जीवविज्ञान     शब्द संग्रह (उदाहरणार्थ epibenthic)

Only known truly pelagic holothurian, floating or drifting near seafloor or high in the water column (Refs. 109722, 129602). Also known as a swimmng sea cucumber, it is found in low oxygen areas and is assumed as a tactic to avoid predators that are more oxygen-hungry and could easily suffocate (Ref. 127487). Feeds on resuspended sediments or detrital material from shallower depths (Ref. 109722).

Life cycle and mating behavior परिपक्व अवधि | पुनरुत्पत्ति | मछलीऔ का अंडे देना | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Members of the class Holothuroidea are gonochoric and have only one gonad. Spawning and fertilization are both external and some exhibit brooding. Life cycle: Embryos develop into planktotrophic larvae (auricularia) then into doliolaria (barrel-shaped stage) which later metamorphose into juvenile sea cucumbers.
