Question
how does the stomphia anemone avoid a sea star predator?
buries itself in sand
shoots ink to distract
uses camouflage
breaks free and swims away
Brief Explanations
Stomphia anemones are known to bury themselves in sand to avoid predators like sea stars. Shooting ink is a defense mechanism of cephalopods (e.g., octopuses). Camouflage is more common in some fish or insects. Anemones, especially Stomphia, are not known for breaking free and swimming away as a primary defense against sea stars; their typical response is to bury.
