EXAMPLE SENTENCES

Crinoideans are marine animals that resemble flowers and attach themselves to the ocean floor with long slender stalks. Fossils of crinoideans are common in ancient limestone deposits and provide important clues about prehistoric marine environments. Some crinoideans can move slowly across the seabed using their feathery arms to crawl or swim short distances. The reef was home to colourful crinoideans that spread their delicate arms to catch tiny food particles from the water. Scientists study crinoideans to understand the early evolution of echinoderms and their relationship to starfish and sea urchins.
