zooids

🗣️

DEFINITION

individual members of a colonial animal such as a coral or bryozoan colony

EXAMPLE SENTENCES

The zooids within the coral colony each contribute to the overall growth and survival of the larger communal organism. Marine biologists studied how zooids communicate with each other through chemical signals to coordinate feeding and defensive responses. Each of the zooids in the bryozoan colony has specialized structures for capturing food particles from the surrounding seawater. The zooids remain physically connected through shared tissue allowing nutrients and signaling molecules to pass freely between individual members. Researchers examined the developmental process by which zooids differentiate into specialized roles within the growing colonial organism.
