1. Feeding on particulate matter (what does?) |
|
Definition
Suspension-feeding (use cilliated surfaces to draw food to their mouths and mucus sheaths to convey food to their digestive tracts)
deposit-feeder (worms, the yingest sediment and digest nutrients and then pass their remains throug hthe anus
