A schematic of the echinoderm water vascular system (WVS) in a sea star (Asteroidea), illustrating a central ring canal (RC) with five radial canals extending into each arm, bearing paired ampullae and tube feet (podia). The stone canal links the ring canal to the external madreporite. In the biological hierarchy, tube feet are appendages within this organ system of the invertebrate body. In anatomy and physiology, the WVS enables locomotion, adhesion, prey manipulation, and limited gas exchange across the oral surface of the arms and central disc.
